EBC Redstuff

I put in EBC redstuff all round about 2 months ago along with new fluid (Motul 660) braided lines and a brake stopper.
I have to say that I'm that impressed with the EBC, I was expecting the brakes to feel really sharp and to the point. But they don't, they are alot better than before but just not what I was hoping for.
Just to note, they don't squeal or put out much brake dust.

ANY GTR owner "should" suggest Ferodo DS2500 pads!

stay well clear of red stuff & yellow stuff at all costs IMO!!

i have heard all sorts of horror stories about the above falling apart, coming away from the backing etc

Yeah that should have said "I'm NOT that impressed" typo:shy:

EBC red stuff don't seem that good. Plus I'm off the Nurburg soon, so think I need to change them soon.

I've been using Yellowstuff all round for two years now and have had no issues with them at all. In fact, I really rate them (fast road only).
