    EBC Greenstuff pads???

    I'm looking for a set for my mk2 upgrade to 280mm. I'm using VR6 280mm calipers and need the pads to suit but want Greenstuffs.
    I tried HI-TECH (EBC distributors in Perth) but the guys there are just totally useless when it's anything other than holden or ford and they'd rather stand there and moan than open the book and help

    Anyone know FOR SURE what the EBC number is for these pads? Or where to get them locally?

    Cheers,
    Wade

    The 280mm part number for the pad should be 929440636
    The other possible one could be 929440951 but I am pretty sure that is the later 288mm pads

    I was looking at EBC Green Stuff for my car last month, but in the end got talked out of it by alot of people, ended up with Bendix Ultimates for half the price and they are great. Very low dust, and good performance. Took them to the track last week with no problems, no fading

    +1 for GSL, using their pads on my VR6 288mm brakes and I'm happy with them.

    I bought my Brembo pads through this crowd and they are also a seller of EBC, maybe give them a try, cost for freight was around $20

    I have greenstuffs sitting here for when my standard pads go for 280mm. From memory they were ~$140 each axle ordered locally.
