EBC / green stuff, red stuff, new yellow stuff... all have pretty good reviews. The EBC discs for the cally are drilled (stopped holes, not all the way thru) and grooved front and rear. Some ppl are advertising on Egay for silly money.

Personally i run mine on totally standard VX parts. N/S front pads started to squeal after 600 miles and rear O/S shoe squeaks every time the handbrake is applied.
I will be changing the whole lot by June or ealier if money allows.

fantastic braking with no fade

I've got some of the ebay ones - they're fine - starting to show tiny cracks from a couple of holes but they've had a reasonably hard life...

Not bad for the money IMO

I've just fitted Red Dot 308mm 20 groove discs and they seem to work well.

I've just fitted Tarox 6 pots and 300mm 60 groove discs and predator pads up front and am getting some Skyline GT32R 4 pots modified to fit the back with black diamond drilled and groove discs, hopefully it will be spot on. I was running the Hi Spec 4 pots with 300mk drilled and grooved discs with greenstuff pads up front and they were great, I just wanted something REALLY good.

One thing iv noticed with them.... some of the groved disks, the grove dosent go all the way to the edge of the disk. Isnt this needed to let the dust/heat escape? meaning as the pad is passing over the grove there will be a build up of dust / heat that gets trapped in the grove with nowhere to escape....?

or is that just rubbish [img]/rolleyes.gif[/img]
