EBC Red brake pads now available

Part #'s are

DP31665C for the front

DP31689C for the rear

I paid ~$230 for both sets

I'm gonna go get them bedded in now. I'll post up tonight when I have an idea of how they perform.

*EDIT*

Got them bedded in. These things grip HARD. Good up to 750 degrees celcius, but the first stop or 2 when cold is a bit nerve wracking.

I post again here in a few days to let everyone know how the dust is. As far as noise is concerned there's a bit of noise, but not much. A little bit quieter than the stock pads were actually.

I have been looking for a US distributor that can get the reds! Where did you get them?

I had them ordered for me by my local speed shop. If you'd like I can ask them next week about how you could get your hand on some.

I paid $164.94 for the front and rear pads for my RX-8. I got them at Pep Boys. They are a special order and took about 5 days to get them.
