EBC Greenstuff ???
Anyone using EBC Greenstuff brakepads? I'm leaning toward puchasing these and was curious about the performance characteristics and "low-dust" claims. I'm currently using Performance Friction pads, the amount of brake dust coming off of these is incredible...doesn't sit well with Artic white paint :(
Any thoughts or suggestions? :cheers:

I have a friend that was running the NAPA Ceramic, which switched to the EBC which he like better. He said their performance was great. I’m planning going to them soon also!

I have'm... and they are VERY NICE... no noise... some dust, but it seems to wash off easy enough.
I have found they work best with a bit of heat in them... no track experience, tho...

What 'bogus' said. I've had them for about 3 weeks. What little dust there is mostly washes off with a good hard spray from the hose. I had a little squeal that lasted for about 100 miles (EBC says that's not unusual on new rotors).

EBC Greenstuff is what I'm using also. Good performance and a lot less dust than stock brakes. It also washes off easier than the dust from the stock brakes. :yesnod: :yesnod:

Great choice, consider one of the best choices for street and light track use. Very light dust which is easy to clean. I think you'll be happy with them.

Re: EBC Greenstuff ??? (Tony.96LT4)
I have them too and they are great... no noise... some dust, but its not bad. They got much better after a few hundred miles of braking. They seemed to smell some untill then. Good choice!!! :cheers:

Re: EBC Greenstuff ??? (RichS)
I am using my EBC's with the GS brake upgrade... not a problem there!!!
and I got mine from tirerack, too...
if anyone here is considering autocrossing, get the redstuff, tho... these cars a bit too heavy for consistant highspeed or aggressive braking.
