OK does anyone sell EBC pads online here in Oz?
I got them from autospeed years ago, but they are out of it now.

EBC's Oz website is crap, not even a pad cross reference table there... :x

Well I'm also pretty sure that I've called MS and they had them , but then my local brakes place ("local" as in fairly close at Mascot) said they could bring them in the next day so I just went with that.

I know it's not Australia but...I got a set of greens on sale from Minisapres UK for 25 pounds once.

Now they are more like 55 pounds a set, that's prolly 150 dollars including post.

I went on to ebay and found someone selling them for Commodores then asked if they had any for mini's which they did.

If you want I can try and find their seller ID, let me know.

I simply went to their website and found the closest EBC stockist.

Of course they didn't stock them, but the got them in the next day.

For my 8.4" I was quoted $45 for blackstuffs (what I got) and I think $95 for greenstuffs.

Slight hijack, do you get a lot of brake dust with the blackstuffs? The amount of black dust coming out of my pads would make an old mercedes blush.

No, although it is a little more than Greenstuffs.
They are both kevlar based pads, not full of brown shite like some.
Also they wear the rotors less than most. 8)

Blackstuffs are strictly a road pad. Good for general use.
Greenstuffs are for more spirited driving, even track days. You can get them much hotter than Blackstuffs without fade.
Pedal effort is a little higher than Blackstuffs, but not much.

Oh and of course the Greenstuffs are ~2x as dear.... :cry:
