  1. its not from there website..the pads have won numerous awards,and they dont need warming up as it states in what i pasted
  2. Award-Winning, Dust-Free Kevlar Brake Pads EBC Greenstuff Road/Sport disc brake pads are designed for sports cars, coupes and sedans used for high performance driving on the road. They are also suitable for sport driving in autocross, Solo II and many “track day” applications. The EBC Greenstuff pads feature a high Kevlar content formulation resulting in ultra high performance pads that are extremely kind to brake rotors. EBC Greenstuff pads (friction level of 0.46µ) will be more responsive than most standard original brakes (typical friction level of 0.25µ to 0.35µ). Their high resistance to brake fade up to 1000° Fahrenheit make them a superb upgrade for luxury and high performance streetcars used for high speed driving or that encounter repetitive, heavy braking. As standard brake pads wear, brake dust is released as the friction material carbonizes at temperatures found in everyday braking. EBC Greenstuff brake pads are formulated to run cleaner because they resist carbonizing until over 1000° Fahrenheit, so in normal street driving, dust is almost entirely eliminated. Features and Benefits of Greenstuff brake pads Upgrade brake performance by up to 30%, friction co-efficient of 0.46µ Excellent initial bite resulting in instant response, no warm-up needed Leading fade resistance on the street, heat stable to a blistering 1000°F Extremely low disc abrasion due to high Kevlar content Low dust formula, great for alloys due to zero carbon content Low vibration, smooth operation The EBC Greenstuff pads have won many awards from United Kingdom magazines. In 1999 they won the UK Autotrade Magazine INNOVATION AWARD for their clean running, high performance features, and were also rated #1 fast road car brakes by UK's largest circulation motorsport magazine, Max Power. Brake pads are wear items and as such, should be inspected regularly and replaced as necessary. Pads should be replaced when approximately 1/8” of friction material remains on the steel backing plate. Drivers who participate in track days should always take spare pads to the track and may find it desirable to also carry a full vehicle set of EBC Redstuff pads in case they need to upgrade their brakes to provide longer pad life at the track or accommodate higher brake temperatures.
  3. great.....so when your crashed into the back of that car cause you didnt stop fast enough at least you can get out and see that your wheels are nice and clean :roll: sorry....im a big hater of ebc pads....may aswell stick a few ice cubes in instead IMO! no problems with my brakes what so ever,and the pads are proven..

  6. you could always use the stoeve motorsport induction filter or an pipercross system
  7. it maybe a Ford but then again the Corrado is just a VW :wink: ...........bear in mind that the Escort Cossie and Corrado were both built in the same factory......yet for the Escort cossie wearing a Ford badge it murders the Corrado in the re-sale value and also tuneabilty(especially VR6) and IMHO it looks much much more menacing :twisted: thing is though any mk4 escort can be made to look like an escorst cosworth but a corrado is just a corrado
  8. £200 all together from demon tweeks
  9. ive got ebc green stuff pads and ebc grooved discs on mine with no dust on my wheels

  22. The Notice of Intended Prosecution (or NIP) This means they are going to prosecute you for the offence and it can take two forms: A written NIP (e.g. if you get a ticket from a speed camera); Verbal NIP. Most Constabularies send them out within 14 days of the alleged offence - even if you were spoken to at the time by a police officer (see verbal NIP). The law has been amended in 1994 to allow the police to use ordinary post and their records are sufficient to prove that the NIP was issued on time. They also get an allowance of a couple of days for the post to deliver them. So, if its more than 17 days since you were flashed they are too late to prosecute you, unless you were driving a company car, hire car or someone else's car. In these circumstances they are allowed more time to track you down. This letter from Staffordshire Constabulary will help you to understand this point. If the police failed to meet the 14 day deadline, for issuing the initial NIP to the Registered Keeper, this link, which includes advice provided by the RAC's legal team, may help you. This link explains the legal position regarding inaccurate NIPs. The Police have six months to issue a Fixed Penalty Notice (FPN) because they are exempt from the 14 day rule and if you were stopped, and spoken to by a police officer, they also have six months to prosecute you because the officer will have issued you with a verbal NIP at the time. There are two separate offences under the law: Not providing the name of the driver ( this is covered under Section 172 of the Road Traffic Act); Speeding. If you receive a written NIP through the post, and you were not spoken to at the time of the alleged offence, you can only be prosecuted for NOT informing the authorities who was driving your vehicle, and doing so exonerates you from any prosecution - assuming that it wasn't you who was driving, of course! You can NOT be prosecuted for speeding if you were not driving the vehicle but some Constabularies try to bully the registered keeper into accepting liability for the offence. However, the burden of proof lies with the prosecution, so if you were not driving, or honestly can't remember who the driver was, you should "stick to your guns". Write and ask the police to provide you with a copy of the evidence - explain that you "need it to identify the driver". The law states that they must provide you with a copy of the evidence, but if you experience any difficulties our Disclosure page will help you. If the vehicle was flashed by a Gatso camera they will have two photographs of the rear of the vehicle, so how can they prove who was driving, if the driver doesn't incriminate them self? However, you will be in much more trouble than for a speeding offence, if you say that you were not the driver and they can prove that you were! Take a look at the photographic evidence in our Case File 7, and if they treat you any differently to the citizen involved in this case reported on the BBC News site politely remind them that every one must be treated equally under the provisions of the new Human Rights Act introduced to implement the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). for more info look at http://www.pepipoo.com/
