tony20vt Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 i have recently aquired some ebc greenstuff brakepads fronts 2003- brembos there £25 delivered i only accept payment by cash on collection or paypal as it keeps everyone safe. Quote
M13KYF Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 EBC greenstuff pads are no use for cars over 200bhp. There not the correct spec hence the reason for the Redstuff for the 350z see CS post here viewtopic.php?f=11&t=20551&p=293181&hilit=greenstuff#p293181 he should know I think they will fit a honda civic type R and correct spec. Perhaps CS can verify this. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 EBC greenstuff pads are no use for cars over 200bhp. There not the correct spec hence the reason for the Redstuff for the 350z Fully agree with Mike, EBC themselves don’t list or suggest the Greens for the Zed, the Reds are the standard and the Yellows are the upgrade… Quote
tony20vt Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 They are actually labelled 350z 2003- brembo. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 They are actually labelled 350z 2003- brembo. The earlier labels were this way… I remember the Greens were also labelled for the Honda Integra Tyre R Import... Quote
Chris`I Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 I beleive EBC retracted the use of Greenstuff on 350z as the weight of the car means it puts too much stress on the pads. Quote
tony20vt Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 so iam stuck with 12 sets of useless brake pads, great Quote
Chris`I Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Sure they will fit a more suitable car bud, they Brembo callipers must have been used in other lighter cars. CS suggests integras are a possibility. Sure EBC could confirm which other cars are fitted with the same callipers and you can sell them for those cars, so all is not lost Quote
Ekona Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Should've checked first I'd rather use the cardboard the pads came in as friction material rather than the Greenstuff pads themselves. Horrible, useless, dusty things. Quote
tony20vt Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 well when you didnt pay a thing for them 'should've checked first' dont really come into it, does it? Quote
Ekona Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 It does if it means you're left with them knocking around the house and can't get rid of them Quote
Chris`I Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 But equally, if you paid nothing for them, then you havent lost anything, so dont see why you are getting so angry! Find out off EBC what other cars they will fit and flog them on ebay for those cars. Sorted Quote
R800NER Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 If these fit a Celica 1.8VVTI, my mate might be interested in some? Quote
