I guess now the big hype in the UK is the Orangestuff pads, it's going to be a long winter so we will see, im still on Ferrodo DS2500's and am pleased.

EBC website clearly states the Orangestuff cannot be used in DD. It is not certified in Europe for this. In the USA, use the Bluestuff if you are going to drive the car to the track. The Orangestuff is track only....


Bluestuff works well for most track days for the EVO according to most posters and Smike...

^ correct. Orange is not for "to zero" stops.

In an AX last season, Mustang hit 125 a few times (AX on road course). Brakes where awesome. Many have HPDE/TT on the Blues in their Evos too.

Personally, I would not run the blues or any EBC pad on the track. I ran the blues this summer because of a nice little deal that was mention on page 1 where nasa/scca members get rears free when ordering fronts. I did just to try them out (was planning on Hawk DTC60's).

It takes a lot more pedal pressure quickly to get a good bite. To me they were not very confidence inspiring when coming from 130-140 to 50-60. Drove a friends Evo briefly with Carbotech's and they had much more initial bite with less pedal pressure.

I would say if you're serious about compressing your braking zones.... don't use EBC (just my opinion). I won't be using them in the future.... I will be selling mine soon.
