I use the green, they work well and they do dust (not any more that the stock pads), but it is a light color, and easy to wipe off with a towel. I may try something different next time, but not because I don't like the EBC, I would buy them again.

I use the Greenstuff pads on my 87 autocross car. Great cold initial bite for the street and I have not seen any brake fade with them. I have done a couple of track days with them and they do very well.
They don't dust too bad and even track use, they don't dust anywhere near as bad as the Hawk pads I ran.
These pads are also very easy on rotors. I installed a set of cheapie stock type rotors last year and they don't really show any abnormal wear. I should be able to run this year on these rotors and chuck em for another set of generic replacement rotors.

How good or bad from noise standpoint ?

Greenstuff:
significant improvement in stopping power & control over the stock pads (especially when cold)
dust is equal to worse
wear out quickly - lasted 2 seasons for me which is about 5K street miles and 200 1/4 mile passes.

Hi
I have an 85 z-51, 4+3.
The stock brakes on the 85 is just terrible. I have sweated many times and searched for how to get better brakes. Tried the semimetallic and they were somewhat better.
I was recommended the greenstuff and tried them with sceptisism. They had very much better initial bite and better stop power. I am now satisfied with them and I think I cannot await much better brakes from a single piston caliper.

Other than that,.. the anti rattle tab's are not rubber filled,... like previous units. They rattled in Rev, until I adj the tabs. (Minor) Prolly bent during install.
I'll get SBS next time as well.
