I recently bought a set of EBC GreenStuff pads for my mini because my pad wear sensor has been on since I bought the car. Long story short pads looked new when i took them off and pad sensors were hacked and rewired and all kinds of dumb stuff. But my loss is your gain because I have a front and rear set of brand new in box ebc GreenStuff pads as well as a brand new brake pad sensor I'd like to sell. Paid about $170 plus shipping from WMW and I do believe I'm out of his return policy. So I'm asking $150 shipped for all of this. Or if you are in the southern Indiana area I will give you these for free if you can fix my pad sensor wiring problem!
:cornut: That's a good deal and some one will probably pick up on it soon. EBC's are popular in the MINI community. GOOD LUCK! Jason
I haven't even thought of brakes yet still trying to get on the road. what's the deal with the green stuff blue stuff red stuff anyway ?
:cornut: 1. Green Stuff= high performance, low dust street, and perhaps an autocross or two. 2. Red Stuff= highest performance street and track, low dust. 3. Yellow Stuff= track only. need to be kept hot by constant track use or they don't bite and therefore are dangerous for street(it is said). 4. Blue Stuff=Relatively New Product, the opposite of Red Stuff, mainly track but also street. high dust. They(it is said) bite hot or cold. I personally have no experience with Blue Stuff and as such will await up coming reports from the MINI community. Recently a simple question and answer survey was done here at MA as to MA MINIac's favorite brake pads. EBC Red Stuff won by a good margin. Jason(I hope that this helps)
EBC make excellent rotors and pads. I ran Red stuff on my Rally Swift with zero fade even on down hill tarmac stages. I have Yellow stuff on the MC with EBC grooved/dippled rotors. Like Jason says you need to warm the yellows up alittle but with my driving style they are always warm! I use yellows for the street with no issues.
Where in Indiana? Would the shipping price come off if I picked them up [depends where you live in IN, though]?
