I'm in - I take it the red stuff pads are fine for everyday road use on a (for the moment) standard car? :wonder:

Just my opinion, but I tried ebc grooved/dimple discs with red stuff pads on my old sti 4. Utter pants! Cr%p from cold, crap when hot, warped discs and 2mm pad life left after only 6K! And I am not even slightly heavy on the brakes either!

Ended up replacing them with copy oe parts all for under £100. Major improvment in both cold feel and fade resistance (was using dot 5.1 fluid.)
I now have standard discs, pagid pads and braided hoses on my MY99UK Turbo now. Very happy and I will stick with this set up.

I would just hate for someone to waste £300+ on sub-standard discs and pads.
Maybe just try the pads, but pleeeaaaassseee, don't buy the discs!

Sleazy Badger 28 July 2006 10:55 PM

:confused:
hmmm, maybe i'll go for OEM pads instead...

very very suprised by this - we've been selling EBC for 2 years now and only ever had good feedback on the pads and discs.

Theres a review of the brakes on this website for anyone whos interested

I changed from OEM disc's and pads to EBC Discs and Pads (Yellow Stuff Front, Red Stuff Rear) about 2 years ago and the pads only need replacing now after 15000 miles and 2 trackdays. Haven't compared them against other aftermarket pads but they are shedloads better than OEM kit

OK, i'm definitely in for this then - the guy in the review sounds like he knows his stuff.

Why am i so 'flighty'? :)

NeilT 31 July 2006 04:56 PM

hi all

can we have a final list of who wants what?

I think that as we're only 1 or 2 away from the minimum of 10, we'll start processing orders for them, rather than drag it out waiting for the 10.

So, can those who have added their names to the list call us on 01509 853 502 (office hours) to place your orders

thanks

EBC Redstuff 'Ceramics' have had plenty of unhappy users, myself included.

Wear out VERY quickly. Yellowstuff'R' pads work exceptionally well - seem to last and last, with very little dust and good road/track characteristics.

Important to run similar/same compounds front and rear.

Discs seem to spider crack around dimples.

Forum sponsor and www.Mocomracing.com very helpful in sorting out my problems with the redstuff.

SamUK 10 August 2006 01:49 PM

Groupby is closed....

I have got my items today... :thumb:


ps: have used red stuff before, and yes they do wear out quickly...however have had no other issues with them...
