EBC Rotors/PADS





CorSport Online Store: EBC Brakes
All Categories





EBC 3GD Series Sport rotors are precision-machined using premium-quality castings not only to enhance the performance of your vehicle, but also because they look good. EBC Sport rotors feature wide aperture scraper slots to expel dirt, dust, and gases, and blind drilled holes to prevent cracks and help break down surface gases. When you're looking for performance, turn to EBC.

Features:

Anti-Corrosion Coating
Dimple Drilling Degasses Pads w/o Cracking
Eliminates Rotor Galling/Improves Brake Efficiency
Full Width Slots Ensure Flat and Parallel Wear
Full Width Slots Expel Dirt/Dust/Water/Gases
Ideal For Use w/EBC Upgrade Sport Pads
Prevents Ribbing/Scoring Of Rotor Surface
Wide Aperture Slots Keep Pads And Rotors Cooler





Premium street sport pad for cars up to 200bhp. General spirited street driving.

Designed for premium street driving offering better brake effect up to 600°C (1100°F). EBC Greenstuff has a high initial brake effect and gives drivers confidence from first application of the brake pedal. There is no such thing as a NO DUST pad. The very nature of how a brake works requires that some dust be generated to avoid rotor vibration (shimmying). The EBC pad creates less dust and dust is more easily washed off than most. All pads create more dust as they are bedding in especially if rotors are worn. Nominal friction coefficient 0.55. For heavier faster cars and vehicles above 200bhp we strongly recommend Redstuff





High Performance LOWEST DUST rating pads for Prestige imports and faster street driving.

There are TWO reasons our customers love Redstuff, First because they are the lowest dust pad we have encountered by reducing dust by 60-90%. Plus the minimal dust you see is very easily removed with a simple sponge wash as it contains no steel fibre particles as in ALL OTHER pads. Second they brake like an alligator right from cold (as good as Original pads or better) and just get better as they heat up.

This material is a KevlarŪ fibre based brake compound enhanced with ceramic particles. If you have previously tried EB
C redstuff (pre-ceramic compound) this material is light years ahead. It lasts longer, it brakes better and is quieter.

Being a hard wearing pad, bed-in times can be as long as 1000 miles and drivers must be patient until the pad takes up the shape of their disc (brake rotor). This is a truly impressive fast road pad for repeated heavy braking.

It emits far less dust than semi-metallic pads and has been proven to stop a passenger car/sedan/sport compact/hot hatch 13 metres quicker than OEM pads from 100mph/160kph. Features EBC Brake-In surface coating which conditions rotor surface and accelerates pad bed-in. Nominal friction coefficient 0.5 with approx. 50% dust reduction.




Ultra High Friction Pads for Race, Trackday and Street Use.

EBC Yellowstuff is an aramid fibre based brake compound with high brake effect form cold and is possibly one of the first ever compounds that can be used for STREET AND TRACK DRIVING. These pads do not require warm up but do get even stronger under the heat of hard driving. These are not a low dust pad and if your desire is for a low dust premium street use pad, you should consider EBC Redstuff. EBC Yellowstuff is currently produced in two compound versions - DM1846 and DM1793, both of which have been used with some success in racing. HOWEVER, for standard OEM brakes, as fitted to your car, there is no doubt that the DM1793 is getting better feedback, as it is slightly harder, slightly longer lasting and more appropriate for track day driving.

When considering full race use, DM1793 has also been a strong favourite, having been used for two years in the Swedish Camaro Cup and at numerous other race events where a stock caliper system is fitted.

If using a high efficiency aftermarket race calipers with 4, 6 or 8 piston set ups, the sheer efficiency might allow the use of 1846 compound. DM1846 is currently the choice of the majority of GT3 drivers which are pretty serious competitors.

Yes, would be very interested as to your guy's opinion of EBC vs. Powerslot and Hawk. I just bought some EBC rotors for my friend's SUV but I still haven't put them in yet.

The black is just a coating to protect the rotors from oxidation until they are installed. They black wears off as soon as the brakes are used.

I've only had mine on for a few weeks, but they haven't shown any rust on them yet.

Also, what ever part of the rotor does not get rubbed off by the pads stays coated to prevent rust.

EBCs been around for awhile now, their stuffs pretty decent. I haven't been able to road course my car for a year now because my stock brakes are toast.

Just FYI, yellows do dust A LOT compared to stock. Clean wheels weekly or at least every 2 weeks max.
