I've used this pad in the past and I didn't like them at all. Stopping wasn't improved much if at all, I didn't really notice it. They took a little bit to warm up before they would even bite good, when they are cold they were downright dangerous. Their claim of "less dust" is a complete lie, the green stuff dusted up 5x faster than stock and they didn't last very long either.

greens are an ok choice for the street. they make ALOT less dust than the stock pads and perform just fine for the street. i would not do a track day or autox with the greens though - oh, and i do use the ebc greens for street and carbotech 1108 for track days. my 2c

I've used Axxis Metal Masters and Portfield RS-4s, I dunno if they make those for the EVO yet, but I highly recommend either of those over EBC.

They suck donkeyballs, tried them out on the subaru and my no name lifetime warranty pads from autozone worked much better. If you create too much braking heat with these pads they will eat through rotors

A good pair of OEM replacements (dust free) will work great from a quality autostore if your just using the car for an everyday get you to work hauler.

I agree with the above EBC street pads are bad. The put a lot of material on the rotors for huge "warped brake feel" after you get them hot. Recomend the Ferodo's or Hawks

BTW I have EBC sintered pads for my motorcycle and they are fantastic there. The don't offer a car version for some reason

i bought the reds for my evo front and rear. the fronts came with a sensor comming out of the pad. you can either cut it or pull it out, its not needed on the evo. on the box for the rears the vehicles are 350z and sti. there both brembos and will fit. i know the greens are not listed for the evo but these will work.
