Brake Pads
by TheFirstEskimo » Sat Dec 24, 2011 2:09 pm
It's time to change my brake pads, so what type does everyone use? Advantages, disadvantages? I've got the standard brake setup on a 07 GT (no brembos )

+ for EBC Green stuff, much better bite over OEM and virtually no dust.
Cheapest I found them was here http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/170582245160 ... 1497.l2649

Would $236.25 be a good price for front and rear green stuffs?

I am running ds2500, they have very good initial cold bite and pull up the heavy wagon extremely well.

The DS2500s are very good pads. Light years ahead of any of the comparable EBC options.
Of course if you really wanted to stop, you'd buy my Dixcels over in the for sale threads.

Hey guys,
Can I use any of these on my brembo's? still got 50% left on the front and 80% left on the rear, but the brake dust is very annoying
Thanks,

Yep just got Ferodo DS2500's for my Brembos a few weeks ago from eBay seller ravspecoutlet. Cost $360 for both front&rear delivered to Aus.
I own a Liberty honest!
