funny how some people love these and some hate them. i had a pretty good run out of my set of them too. lasted ages and worked well. not a great street pad with their dust though

EBC are a good option for your kind of use i think and not bad prices, Mac @ 41.co.nz can get them

EBC are a brand. Without the compound specified, it doesn't mean anything, as with all other brands.
Kinda like saying a Toyotas are awesome and if you buy a Toyota it will do exactly what you require... Hilux or Yaris? :lol:

I use EBC greenstuff in the MR2 on stock rotors, absolutely love them. Minor noise from them when cold, but still bite. Not too dusty either.

pc: yeah i probably should have mentioned the green/red stuff info but i thought i'd leave it up to the buyer if we wanted a hilux or yaris
green stuff - mainly street
red stuff - in between
yellow - more track designed
