Brake pads EBC or Raybestos

EBC Brake pads

I use EBC YellowStuff. They are great on the street and very predictable & consistent at the track. My local track is not very brake intensive: I’ve run 8 track days on the same set of pads plus lots of street miles in between. They’re due to be changed before my next track day.

Pros: great on street, predictable

EBC Bluestuff NDX Appears to perform similar to DTC-30/ME20 or equivalent as a hybrid street/track pad. I know a couple fast drivers that use them with no fade. They're cheap enough that you might as well give them a shot, make sure "NDX" is in the product id.

Pros: no fade, cheap

If you want more braking performance but don't mind the extra dust, the EBC Yellowstuff pads are my favorite street pad.

Pros: more braking performance
Cons: quite dusty

EBC Brake pads

So i swapped out the OEM pads for some EBC sintered HH pads on my 22' Monster and I have to say the difference is night and day. Initially swapped the pads to try and fix the annoying brake shudder issue i had when slow braking to come to a stop (at a traffic light for example). Also I hated how the OEM pads felt. They were kind of soft and not very good. I ride pretty aggressively and I had a aprilia 660 before which had the same calipers (different master cyl) and the brakes felt way better and more direct because it didnt have such shitty OEM pads. I went for a quick ride after changing the pads and now the brakes feel waaay better and more direct. Paid like 60 bucks for both sides and also cleaned out the pistons and everything while i was at it. Can only recommend it to any 937 owner, because the OEM brake setup with the M32 calipers would be really good but the shitty pads are kind of ruining everything. I cant tell yet tho if the brake shudder issue i had is fully gone. During the test ride i felt like sometimes the front ent wasnt pulsating/grabbing anymore but sometimes it was still there but i hink it takes some time for the new pads to "brake off" all the uneven deposit from the stock pads. I heard that its a problem that the OEM pads also dont really "clean" the rotor well enough so thats why i thought id give the HH a try in the first place. Will go for another ride tomorrow and bed them in a bit more and see if it gets better but im pretty confident.

Pros: better braking, more direct
Cons: brake shudder, soft OEM pads

Last set of pads were yellowstuff, they had a nasty bite when low speed braking and whined terribly. Switched to greenstuff, i like them.

Nice middle ground in brake performance, no whine, no low speed bite, no oem shimmy.

Pros: good performance, no whine
Cons: nasty bite, whined

I have run the EBC RP-1s and currently am on the RP-X. The 1s were fine/no issues I just didnt like the lower Mu (less bite). These are a 1400+ deg F pad. I used them on street between track events without issue.

Pros: no issues, street use ok
Cons: less bite

I legit just installed the same pads and rotors and the squealing is driving me nuts. It’s only from my passenger side and happens sporadically under light breaking. Everything I have read says it will go away. However I’m at about 400km and it’s still there.

Cons: squealing noise
Mileage: 400 km

I got about 500 miles on new EBC red pads and EBC rotors. They made so much noise when I first installed them, now only the driver side is still making a squeal on occasion. I assume the passenger side bedded and the driver side is close behind. My main question is for anyone who has these pads, do they ever chill out on brake dust? I can only assume they are not fully bedded in yet but holy god they dust like crazy. I can honestly say this whole experience has been terrible and EBC customer service is non-existent.

Cons: noisy, excessive dust
Mileage: 500 km
