Me want new pads! (Not naming & shaming)
Discussion
I want to get some new EBC Green stuff pads for Twink.
I asked the guy at Carnausiator to get some in, but the dumb-arse there has called me back for two days...
..I mean, when you want something like Brake pads, don't you usually reallywant them now?
Pi$$ed off with waiting for the monkey to call back, I thought I'd surf for them instead, but can I find anyone who wants my dosh enough to offer to swap it for some of the required components?
Like Fcuk I can!
Bloody hell, I'm going to bed, it may be the last nights sleep I ever get if my brake join the firemen on the 'morrow!...and will the turd at "Car(have you got my bleedin' pads yet?)...er,no sir" feel even the tiniest pang of remorse?
....probably not!
Anyone know where Iwhere I might have some luck online?

Try www.brake-speed.com - dunno if the pads for any of the cars listed there will be the same as the Twink needs.
Try Essex-based Sejoc - they stock EBC greenstuff www.sejoc.co.uk/index.html
Good luck

...I'll have a surf around whilst taking luncheon.
Will Sir be taking luncheon in the dining room today? Or shall I ask cook to prepare a tray of cucumber sandwiches and a glass of your favourite ale to have in your study?

Don't let the Butler get hold of your pads - the court case will just get thrown out........
Arrghhh! Don't buy EBC gear, they're utter shite! Tried Green and Red pads on the Supra, neither lasted more than 2000 miles. Apparently the Green was "Too soft for such a heavy car" and I should never have been sold them (then why do they list em?), and the red "must have been a bad batch". Unless you want to spend aroun £150-£200 a set on proper pads, stick to dealer ones. I use Toyota pads now, no problems at all even with the engine at 150% of the original power level! 

The current green stuff ones have lastes a good year and a half of Dangerous missions. I've been impressed by them form the start.
Twink's quite light, and they make her do handstands!
If they should never have been sold to you, why were they ever even made?
Sounds like the dealer trying wriggle out of a refund to me.
BTW, you've obviously never bought OEM honda parts from a dealer, have you?

That's a little unfair. EBC pads are used on a lot of car quite successfully, just because they don't work well on one car is no need to write them off
You shouldn't need to call you insurers. Got a new screen on the Boxster the other day due to chip damage and all you have to do is ring a windscreen repairer (Autoglass or whoever) and they do it all. You just have to show them your insurance certificate and hand over your glass excess (usually about £40) when they turn up and they do the rest. It shouldn't have any effect on your NCB (but I should check your policy just in case).
