Nissan 370Z Forum  

Anyone tried EBC blue or alternatives

I use the 10/8 combo on the street. They're a bit noisy and a little dusty. Other than that. I have no issues using them on the street.

Yea they work but they’re a touch more grabby and aggressive than I’d desire in stop and go traffic. And with street tires on track they’re probably more than I probably need (although they are awesome). Just wondering if there’s a compromise out there between the 1521 and xp10/8 setup, maybe a touch less bite like the 1521 but won’t fade out on track.

Do you find that if you have been diving for a while, say on the highway, without applying brakes, these pads will require a higher pedal application and or tend to fade at this point? because they are cold?

Worried about the need for a sudden stoppage due to traffic at a dead halt ahead.

I also run XP10/8 on the street. Rarely do I ever have the issue of increased pedal pressure required. Once in a while I will notice this, but it’s mostly at low-speed braking after cruising for a bit without applying brakes. But it isn’t anything to be worried about… it’s a relatively minor increase in required pedal pressure.
