The material has had much success on the track with quality aftermarket calipers (Multi piston systems with better release and cooling and larger rotors) and limited success with street based calipers where pad size and caliper drag can challenge any brake material. The biggest advantage of EBC Bluestuff NDX is their bite from cold and progressive brake feel and the ability to bring a car to a complete stop. This has led to the ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval of R90 which is now completed and certificates are being obtained (during July 2011). There are certain older street based caliper systems where even the new Bluestuff will have trouble handling the caliper and slider drag inherent in the systems but this scenario is exactly the same for our competitors. There is NO material that will be PERFECT on the track in all older street based caliper systems.\n\u003cbr\u003eBluestuff NDX Full Race Brake Pads; FMSI Pad No. D1561; Vented; 312\/328\/330mm Dia.; 75\/79mm Center Hole Dia.; Pad Dimensions: 148.3 x 69.9 x 19.2mm;\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eChemical Interlayer Pad For Super Strong Pad Bond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eDeep V Grooves Catches Dirt Dust\/Improves Venting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eHuge Lifetime Almost Double Previous EBC Products\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eSurfaces Are Left Smooth And Not Scored\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eWorlds First Street And True Track Pad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eLow Heat Transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eEasy On Rotors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cli\u003eGreat Release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EBC Bluestuff NDX Part Number DP52105NDX offers high-performance front brake pads designed for aggressive street driving and track use.
