    Product Details

    Bluestuff NDX Formula Racing Rear Brake Pads (DP51140NDX) by EBC®. Bluestuff NDX is an intermediate grade trackday and race pad making it the material of choice for many club level racers and serious trackday enthusiasts. However, due to Bluestuff having excellent cold friction and being very controllable, this compound has quickly become the brake pad of choice for performance road car drivers in USA and Asia markets where R90 homologation does not apply.

    Installation

    More recently, EBC are pleased to announce that Bluestuff™ has passed extensive road focused testing and gained R90 approval on some E.U. fitments, making it unique in being the first truly track focused pad which is also perfectly legal for use on the public roads across Europe. There is no requirement for E.U. customers to inform their insurance company following fitment of R90 approved pads.

    For customers with experience of EBC’s widely acclaimed Yellowstuff™ material, Bluestuff™ boasts a similar friction profile but with a usefully higher friction coefficient across the now larger working range, feeling much like you’d imagine Yellowstuff™ to feel after a double hit of espresso. Bluestuff™ has a high friction coefficient without feeling grabby, taking things up a notch from EBC’s Yellowstuff™ material by bringing superb pedal modulation to a track pad with even greater fade resistance. However, being a track focused material, customers may experience a noticeable increase in both brake dust and brake noise. As is often the case with friction materials, an increase in ultimate performance is often met by an increase in noise and dust.

    Best Brakes By Far
    Fitment was perfect on these brakes. The brakes catch very nicely they are slightly squeaky for the first couple of days which is expected as they need to wear in. Couldn't be happier highly recommend.

    EBC-Bluestuff Racing Brake Pads
    I drive a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 at the race track. The platform is on the heavier side in regards to weight so normal brake pads experience fade with prolonged use. Solution? EBC Bluestuff Brake Pads! These pads are second to none! I experienced zero brake fade and insane stopping power. If you plan to track your vehicle, buy these pads! Installation was straightforward and quick.

    EBC Brake Pads for 07 Charger RT
    Stop really well, easy to put on, but when I first took them out for a drive really bad sounds, and then they went away with time. But after a while, I still notice a squeal but maybe they just need to be broken in more as advised through the research I did on them. Only time will tell. So overall, I give these brakes a 3 out of 5, but another star when I brake these pads in.

    Great Upgrade!
    Was running OEM brakes and decided to upgrade to these. These noticeably have more grip and more stopping power when braking. These make a great addition to any performance streetcar!

    Great Pads but
    Pads don't come with hardware or brake grease. Also didn't have the brake clip holes so I drilled those holes in to be able to use the pads effectively. Otherwise than that could immediately tell the difference in braking performance and has pretty good initial bite.

    Huge Fade and Pulsation
    A bit disappointed that the pads were unable to withstand an HPDE event. During the 5th lap of each session, I started feeling pedal fade and pulsation. The only way I wad able to take advantage of the event was to drive at 80% of my cars capabilities. I had previously used blue stuff on the fears but they didn't last more than 15k miles. Red stuff pads, I have these on the front and rear of my ST, do not perform as advertised.
