EBC brake pads
Just installed the EBC green stuff on my GS for 3 days. Like them
I've been used 2 sets of TRD pads with my SupraTT brakes. TRD pads are made of semi-matelic compond which is harder for the rotors and due to the higher carbon content, they are very very dusy and squeaky. While the EBC pads are made of kevlar compond, they are so quiet and gentle to the rotors. Most important is they have alomost no dust. I have been driving hard for the past 2 days and the re-surfaced rotors are not even polished yet. I know my rotors will last longer with EBC pads.

that sounds awsome man!!
ever since i saw the first add in teh magazines i had a feeling they would be awsome. i was gonna get EBC in the front for my car, but its just TOO much hassle ordering from tirerack.com and everything. I will order them when TRD wears out.

RacingAristo,
No I'm not John that works in Parts Warehouse. I'm ordering EBC pads from him also. He gave me a cheaper price than Tire Rack. So I thought I would pass the savings on.
