If a road car only, get Blackstuffs. If you drive hard in them thar hills, or do any track work, get Greenstuffs. No, Karcraft don't sell EBC pads. They stock Mintex. Not used them so I dunno how they compare. I used to get EBCs online, from www.autospeed.com.au but they don't list them there now. 
Here's EBC's Oz site- http://www.ebcbrakes.com.au/ |

Yep, they're the ones, and right on the money, too. I was quoted $40 or $45 from a local EBC stockist for the 8.4" equiv. |

Those are the Blackstuffs, not Greenstuffs. As I said, not for track work- I faded them in Barney, coming down Kurrajong hill....

They don't bite as well cold as Blackstuffs, but once warm are as good as. When hot, are much better. 
Both these Kevlar pads are good to the discs- they don't wear them away like many pads do.

Blackstuffs are a nice bitey pad for general driving. But a track pad they are not. |
