Hey guys, ive heard there are 2 different types of callipers so i just wanna know if any1 has a pic of the callipers that can take the greenstuff pads?

if u could take a photo or something

ive got a 96 TE altera btw

cause my brakes are screwed and i want something thats not gonna wear in 2 months this time :\

Matty

as far as i know the green stuff pads are only reccomended with the ebc rotors coz they stuff other ones up.

EBC have a fitment chart on their website, but in regards to wear the EBC pads are quite "hard" being high temp pads, so they are not always good for everyday use. Their wear rate is quite good but whenever you push a car hard you're going to eat through pads like spongecake anyway. Higher temp pads just stop them burning.

i guess ill just buy new rotors when they cark it hehe :)

I run Greenstuff pads in my Skyline, they are a great replacement pad, offering superb brake consistency at Track days that I have attended.

They give off a bit of Dust, the Pedal feel when cold is hardly any different from a lesser softer pad, and I certainly have'nt noticed any excessive disk wear after 12 months......

EBC will obviously recommend using there own brand of Disc with there pads....and they are Great discs, but very expensive, and definately not essential.

Cost was $125 for a pair

i think im running bendex and they are shit

my brakes are whining like a bitch
so i need to get em replaced asap
and its taking longer and longer to stop
each week

Bendix make a Variety of Pads, some are quite good on Enthusiastically driven road cars ;) , such as the Metal King and Ultimates.

If your car is taking longer and longer to stop I don't think Pads are your problem, they are pretty consistent right until the end ;)

Booster?

Calipers?

they are SCREAMING like a bitch dude and i drive pretty hard hehe :)

The GREEN STUFF pads are accually Kevler based so they would wear your disk out LESS then other sports pads, maybe same rate of wear as factory pads :)

I run the EBC green stuff on all the cars we work on - there aer no issues with warming them up or wear factors on rotors. I can garauntee this. You start your car and drive like normal

But you can't fit the green stuff to a DBA rotor - it will warp and twist within 1 month of use.

You need ot use an EBC rotor which RPW stocks for marginally more than a DBA rotor for a higher qaulity product.

RPW also stocks the twin piston caliper upgrade to enable you to use the green stuff brake pads and rotors.

Or you can go the big 295mm brake upgrade at the same tiem for a real improvement.

the 295mm Rotors don't happen to fit with the Factory Calipers do they??

Unfortunalty not no have to do rotors and calipers at the same time.
