Does anyone in Melbourne know where is the best place to buy EBC Green Stuff Brake Pads for GPX?
Need to replace the rears ASAP.
Please advise.
Thanks

Not sure where in Melbourne but it would be a bit of a waste with green stuff on the back I used them on the front and the black stuff on the back works well for me.

Black stuff pads are generally about $100 cheaper fitted then the Green stuff pads. and since the front brakes do most of the work its a bit over kill for the back. Both are very good pads though

EBC green stuff is my last brake pad which is pretty good for braking, the only problem i came across is when i brake the tyre won't hold the ground

I just put a set of Green stuff on the front of mine. Pads cost me $185 from Brookvale Brake & Clutch. Labour was 1/2 case of beer for myself.
So $200

Dunno bout the Bendix number, but the EBC Green part number for FTO front pads (GPX) is DP2954.
