    hows the brake dust issue? from what i heard, the ebc pads like to dust up pretty nice.

    Webhosting for less than $3 a month? put "pinoyesv6" as a promo code.

    Are they ceramic? I heard that ceramic brake pads are awesome. They produce brake dust, but just a little. I am looking into getting cross drilled slotted rotors but not sure on what type of brake pads to get. I've seen the green stuff on ebay but wasn't sure if it was good or not. If they are awesome like you mentioned..i wouldn't mind getting a set!

    I've used EBC green stuff for over 2 years now. I must say, they are good. Yes, there is dust, but I clean my wheels regularly anyways. I think I might stick to the green stuff the next time I need to change brake pads.

    I have used these for the past two years or so, yeah there is dust but it is significantly less than others. I am running slotted rotors and I brake too damn hard since I got my intake and love to hear it scream so I speed up and have to slow down pretty quick. I would recommend them, I have had no complaints.
