What is the main advantage of EBC Bluestuff NDX brake pads?

The biggest advantage is their strong bite from cold and progressive brake feel. They are designed to bring a car to a complete stop effectively, making them suitable for aggressive street driving and track use.

Are these brake pads suitable for all street-based caliper systems on the track?

While Bluestuff NDX performs well, there are certain older street-based caliper systems where caliper and slider drag can be challenging for any brake material. This is a common issue across different pad brands in those specific scenarios.

What does the 'Deep V Grooves' feature do?

The deep V grooves are designed to catch dirt and dust, helping to keep the braking surface cleaner. They also improve venting, which aids in cooling and helps maintain consistent performance.

Product Details

You're getting a set of EBC Bluestuff NDX rear brake pads, part number DP5617B. These pads are designed for aggressive street driving and track use, offering a high-friction material that provides a strong initial bite even when cold. They're built with a chemical interlayer for a super strong bond between the pad material and the backing plate, and feature deep V grooves that help catch dirt and dust while also improving venting. This design helps keep your rotors smooth and unscored, and contributes to a longer pad life, almost double that of previous EBC products.

The Bluestuff NDX material has seen success on the track, especially with multi-piston aftermarket calipers that offer better release and cooling. While they can handle some street-based caliper systems, it's important to note that no single pad material is perfect for every track application, particularly with older street calipers that may have inherent drag. However, these pads are known for their progressive brake feel and ability to bring a car to a complete stop, and they've even earned ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval. They're also easy on your rotors and offer great release characteristics.
