    Clunking Noise - Brake Pads/Suspension

    Since upgrading my discs and pads to MTEC and RedStuff EBC I have a new sound! There is a clunking sound over rough roads (mostly bumps and manhole covers) which appears to be movement in the pad within the calliper. It doesnt happen over speed bumps. I know this is a thing that happens and it...

    EBC or Ferodo?

    Hi guys, whats your opinion on pads, got to order some, asked for DS2500s and the guy's come back to me saying they're "hellish expensive, what about some EBC's" If EBC, which colour should I go for or is it worth spending the extra on DS2500's? I know the Ferodos aren't street legal but on the...

    EBC brakes and Ferodo pads...

    Are these discs and pads a good combination? My front discs have rust or are slightly distorted and have a slight vibration when braking so will be changing the fronts soon... Also would it be ok to change to EBC and the Fer pads whilst leaving the rears standard as they are fine? Thats...

    EBC Turbo Groove Discs

    I have what I believe to be EBC Turbo Groove discs on the car at the moment: Image from dealer I've just bought some DS2500s to get fitted this week or next but a mate who is a bit of a brake expert (and will be refurbing the Brembos for me soon) has said "DS2500s good, EBC discs bad"...

    I have a 2004 Leon Cupra TDi and am looking at buying some EBC pads but need to know which ones as on the website there are two year ranges, 2003-2005 and 2002-2005. Anyway the So is it these or is it these. Also, greenstuff ok? It's that or OEM pads on EBC disks, can't afford Fedoro.

    Thumbs up for EBC...

    Credit due where its due, the greenstuff/yellowstuff etc pads get a total hammering on many sites, which does bring the EBC brand down, but... I bought a set of EBC Ultimax discs, and a set of ATE pads to go with them and they are very very good! They are 'dimpled' discs, and have a black...

    EBC brake upgrade ok for KO3 hybrid?

    I am going to need some new brakes soon. But I am going KO3 hyrbrid in the future. Would EBC turbo groove discs all round with green stuff pads be ok with that setup? Only problem is there standard size, 280mm...
  14. DS2500 vs EBC Red's vs Brembo vs Mintex vs ?????

    Hi guys, My brother in law needs to change the pads on the LCR (2005). He stated that the Brembo factory discs are pretty much new (approx 5k old) but he requires just pads. What are the best suited pads on the LCR's for day to day driving that give good performance and a long life...
  15. EBC Disc Brake Part Code

    I just received my EBC front brake discs for my 54 plate Leon Cupra, however I do not think they are right, they have 5 studs but no where for the little grub screw thing to go, does anyone know the part number I would need?
  16. Brembo's or EBC discs for LCR ???

    Had a prob with my LCR which has been diagnosed this morning on this forum (see thread below). I am going to go for the DS2500 pads for unsure whether to go for the Brembo's or the EBC discs with it. Badger has put together a good package that i can order form him, but as in the thread, has...

  18. EBC Discs

    Are the non vented and non drilled EBC disc's any good, would they make a good replacement for the standard discs? I've never felt like I have neede to upgrade the brakes, and I dont want to pay the dealers high prices for OEM discs

    EBC ultimax discs

    Couple of (probably) silly questions :redface: All the pics i've seen of the ultimax discs have black centres, and silver discs. Mine are completely black. Is the black on the disc some sort of coating which needs to be removed? If so, with what? meths? white spirit? Secondly, the two...

    Anybody here running EBC 'Greenstuff' pads on their LCR?

    Hi all, I recently replaced the front pads on me LCR with normal Mintex one's. These are ok - But they don't bite as well as the original SEAT / Brembo pads... I was thinking of trying EBC Greenstuff pads - Has anybody here tried 'em? ...infact - Does EBC even make Greenstuff Pads...
