[Shotimes] RE: (Semi OT) EBC Redstuff Ceramic

[Paul L Fisher]

EBC's catalog http://www.ebcbrakes.com/Assets/2004_5USAautocat.pdf doesn't
show that Redstuff is available for the SHO, however, if you look further
down, it lists the 598 size for a Thunderbird. The Redstuff 598 part # is
DP31168C. This would work on all '96-'99 SHO's and any earlier SHO with the
'96 upgrade.

They don't show any rear pads in Redstuff, only Greenstuff.

I hate my Greenstuff pads with a passion! Loudest pads I have ever had. Will
not quiet down! I have 14,000 miles on them. Rotors are warped. This is on
my Jetta. I wonder if I got the old formulation? I bought them this year.

This link has been around for a couple of months, but I just stumbled across
it:

It's a test of the new EBC Red Ceramic pads on a Rally car, plus the main
post has some interesting comments on the EBC company and pads in general.

Don't know if these are available in SHO sizes yet, but I suspect they will
be eventually.
