My experience with the EBC pads were in my bobtail and were fitted when i purchased the car originally... I found (and am unsure which colour they were, although think Green) they were useless when cold and then very quickly faded and overheated... Probably the wrong colour fitted by an over exuberant previous owner...

Yellow stuff will take more heat without fade, but are a medium-high dust pad

Early Greenstuff pads were utter
I had a set physically catch fire, pedal gave no confidence etc. However they new range of Greenstuff pads appear to be fine. Run a set in wife's Freelander, and while they are not pushed hard, I have had no issues with them, and seem to work well as a like-for-like replacement

On the weekend I had my disc rotors delivered and is had the EBC Redstuff pads delivered in previous week so I sey about fitting them.

It was a very simple job. Took a couple of hours with usual distractions along the way.

Then gave car a wash so I can see how long to dust up wheels again.

What brand of discs did you use?

Interesting to see how you get on with those drilled and slotted discs . Not universally liked but the climate here may be kinder to them . 2008 MY Supercharged
Rimini Red / Jet
four zone climate
remote park heater
and no ugly kid windows.
magnus satis quod turpis satis

The discs were Britpart, so far they seem fine. A bit of noise from them under braking but barely perceptible.

A bit of dust already, dont seem as dustless as my Akebono pads on Disco 3.

Not Britpart discs, but drilled + grooved, after approx 15k miles...
