G'day, I'm after some pads (front and rear) for my EL xr8. It has the el gt brake upgrade with the AU calliper on the front (the kit you sell, still happy). I've heard some good things on EBC green stuff. What other brands/types would you reccommend?
Just out of curiosity, how much are the elgt disks slotted for when i need to replace them? Price on postage to 2526 aswell please Thanks Al

The car is just a daily driver, with a squirt up and around some mountains when i get it to myself. I was after something better than the standard pad that doesn't squeal
Alot of people seem to be happy with QFM hpx pads it seems, how do these compare to the Ferodo formula you reccomended? Out of curiosity, why don't you like the greenstuff pads? Al

With the EBC Greenstuff i get a lot of peaple changing from these to something else after they have worn them out or after fitting them for hard performance use and i have seen them have issues with resin deposits on rotors and this is mainly on heavier cars. Lighter street cars they seem to be fine. This is just what i have seen but there will also be people who use them and have no problems at all.
