whats the difference with redstuff greenstuff which is better for everyday driving with the occasional spirited drive

Hi Mate,

The greenstuff is rated at 600-ish deg C, while the redstuff is rated at around 750deg C.

Have a look at http://www.ebcbrakes.com/greenstuffinfo.html for greenstuff info, and

http://www.ebcbrakes.com/redstuffinfo.html for redstuff info on these pads.

The redstuff is made from the new 3000 series compound.

Some people who has used the redstuff likes them, for the price they gave value for money, and give better feel than the greenstuff. I had greenstuff when I had my R33, low dust, and good daily driving performance. For spirited street drive I'd recommend redstuff based on what people have told me regarding their first hand experiences.

Red should be enough for once in a while club track days (4-5 laps), and hill climb events. But if you're after more racing edge, e.g. for downhill race motorsport, then I can source you some yellow pads or even extreme blue racing pads, but these cost heaps and are R 'Racing' rated compound which RDA told me need to be warmed up a bit before you get optimum performance from it...

So IMHO I won't recommend it for street cars to use anything above redstuff, as they also cost more and probably overkill on most street cars.

Hope that helps...

yeah thanks heaps rs73

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
