James here:

I run EBC disks all round with red stuff fronts and green stuff rears. The combination works well although in winter the fronts can be slightly wooden. However I think the green stuff at the front would possibly die given a good bashing.

Overall I am very pleased..

I've got EBC's front and rear and green stuff pads all round.

Perfectly fine for road, take a bit of wearing in, fade a bit if you're pushing it. Will probably get better pads next time though. Pagids or Mintex per a millon threads before.

fine for road use - not very good on track

Pagid RS42s and AP5000 ally belled rotors are probably the ultimate direct replacements..but you are looking at £1K for the discs and £200 for the pads........

Green stuffs as good as OEM, great for everyday use. Track focussed brakes can be tricker when cold, so go for how you use the car.
