Just curious if someone has any experience with these two products. As soon as I get my taxes back, I'll be getting a brake upgrade, and I'd like to get some consumer feedback. Thanks.

 

HPS, strictly street pads, not trackworthy at all. EBC Green Stuffs, outstanding street pads, and trackworthy with good hot bite.

 

I have the EBC greens on my car and am very happy with them. However, they do seem to wear faster than the stock pads. I am thinking of replacing them with the next step up in the EBC line, but I don't believe those pads (red or black, can remember which) have the same low dust/noise characteristics of the greens.

 

Go with EBC greenstuff, and just be easy on the brakes until you really need em, they'll last pretty good. I'd say worth the money.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help.

 

i have a friend that destroied a set of green stuff pads on teh track he over heated them and the brake material came off the backing

 

EBC Kevlar pads here, they work great. I'd recommend them, have not had them long so not sure how fast they wear down yet but its worth replacing them more often to have them. Definatly a quality product.

 

That happened to me with the Red Stuffs.

I've since learned to not be so hard with the brakes.

 

You're supposed to be hard on the brakes on the track! I too blew up a set of EBC greens at VIR. I had more than half the material left when I started and had the backing plates against the rotors after about 25 minutes. They were awesome on the street though, and were awesome on the track right up until the point that the pad material ran out.
