Disc Pads Green Stuff

Post by TrialsMarina » Thu Jan 03, 2008 4:24 pm

Just bought some Disc Pads for the Marina EBC Greenstuff (DP2106).Supposed to be 20% more grip than a standard pad.

3 times the price of standard ones. Got them from Powerstop Brakes in Witney, part of British Motor Heritage Ltd. £28.34 inc VAT.

Anyone ever used these pads before?

I will let you know what they are like after the Exeter Trial this weekend.

Regards

Martin

I've got them on my GT from the track day I did. They've been on three years and can take a fair bit of punishment, BUT run them in first for 100miles before throwing the anchors out too strongly.

GreenStuff Brake Pads.

Well I am back from the Exeter Trial, some very steep hills to go down and i can report that the new GreenStuff pads were excellent.

Much better feel to the brakes and more efficient.

Well worth the extra money.

will post a full report on the trial shortly.

Regards
