EBC Brake pads

I love the EBC RP-X, fantastic pads. I use those up front and the Bluestuff NDX compound out back. Great HPDE setup on my ~400hp/3350 pound station wagon.

Pros: fantastic, great HPDE setup

EBC Brake pads

I’ve had these EBC blue stuff brake pads for 6k miles (2 track days) and they fronts are almost down to the metal. I expect them to go quick but this was a lot quicker than I had thought

Cons: wore down quickly
Mileage: 6000 km

I have run both 21 and 11 with an EBC bbk for mk5 Supra. The 21’s had way too much bite imo, the Mu is .65 which was the highest I had ever ran. I think they’d be great with slicks but I run street tires. ABS would trigger about 3/4 pedal travel, not fun. I switched to SR11 and was much happier. In terms of bite they felt much better on street tires. I can still get into ABS but I’d have to brake really hard which is where my muscle memory is anyways. Both pads were easier to modulate than what I came from(csg c21). I do enjoy the drastic reduction in bedding as well. I haven’t had issues with fading but I’m also running them with 15” rotors and have OEM cooling ducts so ymmv.

Pros: easy modulation, less bedding
Cons: too much bite, ABS trigger

I have them on a 1600lb race car, so maybe not comparable to a Camaro that weighs twice as much. They're almost too much braking for me, but I kinda prefer it that way. I can lock the slicks at 100mph without fully standing on the pedal. But they're also very easy to modulate. They don't need to be bedded in like normal pads; you just stab them a few times. They don't fade. I've only had them for 1 season, but there's hardly any wear. It looks like they might last me 3 seasons, maybe more.

Pros: easy modulation, no fade
Cons: too much braking

I've ran 2 seasons in a 3300lb Golf R with SR21 fronts and SR11 rears and they've been insane, in my humble opinion. One front set lasted 10+ events, with street miles in-between, and the rears are still the same originals I slapped in 2 years ago. Zero fade, crazy long life, and no chunking/glazing/side effects I can think of. Ran DTCs in the past, and I'd snag these in a heartbeat over any other pad I've used or seen firsthand. The only complaints I have is they bite HARD. Since these work from ambient they will throw you through the dash in the paddock if you aren't careful ???? The plus to that is no real warm-up laps needed. Sintered also stands up to heat extremely well since there is no resin to break-down, which means I can run titanium shims without it baking the pads. Outside that, they throw off some weird non-ferrous silvery dust. Nothing like most race pads where it'll cake everything in the wheel well. It's almost like a bit of gravel dust after every event. Then the price, depending on your pad shape. They're a little under $100 more than most pads in my case, but the life of them more than makes up for it.

Pros: long life, zero fade
Cons: hard bite, silvery dust

EBC Brake pads

I used EBC blue stuff on my BRZ with factory brembos, and replaced the pads using FCP euro lifetime warranty. EBC blues would hold up for multiple track days with stock power on 200TW tires, and I didn’t experience fade at my skill level, usually intermediate at HDPE days.

Pros: long lasting, no fade
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

I have a dedicated track car but I use it to have fun. Therefore, I'm going to test out EBC Bluestuff NDX pads to start this season. I've also used PowerStop Track Day pads and they felt great.

Pros: felt great

I did dot 4 fluid, braided lines, new solid rotors, and EBC yellows and couldn’t be happier. Brake fade was VERY much improved.

Pros: improved brake fade

I've used EBC Yellowstuff and Intima race/track pads for the i30N from Australia...both were fine, but I liked the factory Hyundai pads better.

Pros: both were fine
Vehicle: Hyundai

I got the bluestuff pads for the front of my car and couldn’t find the bluestuff rears in stock anywhere so got another brand for there. From what I heard it’s a solid brand

Pros: solid brand
