EBC do also have premium discs, these are plain (ventilated front and solid rear) discs but they cope with the green stuff pads.

I changed the original system after 90tkm to the EBC combination.

Difference is very well felt when you use the brakes hard.

Not easy to explain, but if you brake hard from a high speed (over 180km/h) you can feel the original brake bite and than have a constant deceleration. At this point with the EBC setup you feel that the brakes start to get warm and grippy and the brake will decelerate even better.

This is my experience with this setup. Didnt try any other setup yet.

The premium discs and green stuff pads are now 50tkm old. They seem to wear harder than the originals, but as excuse I can say that I did one track day with them. (and here they really did their job, no fading or whatsoever, no smoking brakes after stopping in the pitlane).

For germany this combination is approved.

I know the Reds on OEM discs have the same effect of biting well when cold, but when hot biting really well (as in almost caught out a few cars).

Anyway, I think i'll have a look see and see where I get to.

I'll give them a miss thanks.

can i ask why you dismissed the ds performance pads, are they really bad!

They cost almost the same as the DS2500 and the reds are IMHO better and less then the performance.

The yellows are an even better pad and still cost a lot less than the DS performance. Basically you're paying a lot for the name.

Don't get me wrong I wouldn't buy ****, but at the same time I'd get OEM pads over the DS performance if I didn't like the EBC.

ok mate thanks for the reply, im thinking about standard brembo discs and tarox strada pads.
