Just wondering what brake pads are you guys using, ever thought about doing a group buy for brake pads? I use EBC green stuff before and thinking of changing to red stuff / yellow if i can get some rice from casino / pokies LOL
Ok back to topic, suggestion for a good brake pad and cost?

heyhey...sounds good, i need pads too...but i'm on a financial restraint at the moment! haha....so high end pads are an impossibility for me atm. If we can get some prices up here, that'd be sweet

RB74's - for the price, cannot beat them.
Actually, even for double the price you probably couldn't!!!

I got mine direct from Race Brakes in Melbourne last year.
From memory, 2 front pads were about $160.
PS.
I have a bad memory
