    This is an Aussie site which I found, $84.70 for 1 axle set (4 pads) EBC V4 Greenstuff Brake Pads - any comment? Good price, and would you only need the one set? Are these for the front or back? I have NO idea about brakes eh! Basically be using them for street use but wanted something better than standard.

    Try $253 for EBC V4 Greenstuff Fronts...

    from AutoSpeed.com.au ??? Click HereBut I would get them from TTzed.com, which is in Victoria, which have the complete range of EBC Brakes Bads. For the price you mentioned, you would be looking at the "Street Kevlar" pads:Brake Pads - EBC [image]http://www.ttzed.com/products/productimages/EBC825_t.jpg[/image]EBC 'Street Kevlar' Brake Pads - Front (90-96 Z32)

    I would stay far away from greenstuffs

    Not for their ability to pull up, they have that in abundance, but they don't last long at all, I had mine for 3 months before I heard the indicator, with no track work I have heard that its due to them being not suited for a car as heavy as the Z.Also talk about DUST!!!!! they are ment to have a "dust free" formula, but they are the worst pads ever. :N( Can't comment on their kevlar range

    Two totally different experiences with Green Stuff pads. A couple of people have had bad experiences with them not lasting very long at all, and then others (Like me) have run them for over a year without any drama, and in my case plenty of life left in them.

    I have just replaced my Greenstuff

    pads (front and rear), after 2 years of daily driving. The fronts were down to 2mm, the rears still had 6mm, that's good in my book, and they were Kevlar and almost dust-free.
    However, I do think that the compound has been changed more recently.Cheers

    i got kevlar pads on my rears, and i think e

    ndless on the fronts. Clean the rims, and after about an hour of driving, the rears are black from the dust. Fronts have NO dust at all and have been on the car for over a year and have probably only worn down about 2mm since i bought the car. Kevlars = no no. Also the front rotors are fine and rears are badly lipped.
