Brake pads EBC or OEM Nissan

I replaced my stock brake pads with EBC Green Stuff. There's been times where I need to make an emergency stop and *holy shit will they stop*. I think the seatbelt bruised my chest the one time.

EBCs. I also did SS lines but my brakes feel amazing. And they’re barely wearing with 4,000 miles. And I hard brake all the time.

EBC BlueStuff NDX has my vote! They perform excellent on the track and are quiet for the street. I use stock rotors but feel free to upgrade those if you feel like it’s worth it for you. Upgrade the brake fluid as well. I used Motul 660.

The only pads I run on any of my vehicles now are EBC Brakes. Redstuff for daily/street leaning as they are less noisy, aggressive, and leave low dust with exceptional braking performance cold or warmed up. These are ceramic so they also have longer life than traditional pads. Yellowstuff for anything higher weight or power (have had them on my 955 Cayenne Turbo, an e90 335i, and on a Lexus SC400). Outstanding braking bite and not too aggressive for the street. A little more responsive in the cold but only marginally. The only downside is the high amount of brake dust, but a good cleaner and wheel coating can ease that. These are metallic so life is less but they have more of the “bite” many look for when they want a track-capable pad.

EBC Blues or Ferodo DS2500s are the minimum baseline for what I'd put on the track. They can both handle novice/intermediate pace without being absolute shrieking banshees on the street. Lot of dust though, and they likely won't hold up to more than 4-5 track days. But very streetable.

I've had them for 30k km and they're great. Perfect for spirited driving / autocross and I've only ever had brake dust squeal once and for a very short time.

My EBC reds say to use pads easy for 200 miles. Then do 4-5 hard stops from 50 mph

I run EBC yellows on a heavy car (Kia Stinger GT) and they do ok. The problem with TNiA events (especially the novice group), there's usually A LOT of traffic, and no one is pushing the limit into braking zones.

If you’re going to run lap after lap they don’t hold up.

Yes. Ebc yellows completely failed for me on the 3rd lap.
