Hey Guys,

I managed to get a group buy set into place with the guys at First Force. I spoke with the owner Joe and he gave me this proposition. We Need 6 members in order to get the deal. So I have had a few people message me already regarding brakes so I decided to try and set up this group buy for the club.

So here is the price breakdown that was given to me. ***You can just get pads if you want for the same discount pricing***

EBC 3GD Sport Slotted & Dimpled Rotors:
FRONT: $193.00+tax REAR: $191.00+tax

GreenStuff Pads:
FRONT: $79.25+tax REAR: $70.00+tax

RedStuff Pads:
FRONT: $84.95+tax REAR: $79.25+tax

YellowStuff Pads:
FRONT: $94.52+tax REAR: $88.79+tax

Cost of FULL set of Rotors + Greenstuff Pads:
$533.25 +tax = **$602.57**

Cost of FULL set of Rotors + RedStuff Pads:
$548.20 +tax = **$619.47**


Cost of FULL set of Rotors + YellowStuff Pads:
$567.31 +tax = **$641.06**

So if you are interested to partake in this group buy please add your name to the list below alongside the setup you wish to purchase. I hope this helps the club out in some way. If anyone has questions feel free to ask.

1. Mazda_RX804 (REDSTUFF w/Rotors)
2. Klzebob (REDSTUFF PADS ONLY)
3. 9291150 (REDSTUFF w/Rotors)

i'm in for Redstuff front and rear brake pads only, no rotors

 

That's a pretty good deal. Can we get the rotors in black finish (vs gold)? How about yellowstuff pads?

 

Is shipping an option? Depending on the price, I might be in for some rotors. Gotta pull my wheels off and check them soon.
No interest in the EBC pads though.

 

I gotta ask him if the deal applies to the whole package only or if you can pic and choose items. As for the gold rotors. They don't stay gold. After use they become silver. Ans the black USRs aren't as good as the 3GD rotors. I'm sure I can get pricing for yellows and blues if anyone is really interested.

 

Talked to Joe and he said pads only are fine, i updated the thread to include pricing on yellowstuffs

 

When I did a Google image search for EBC 3GD this is what came up:



Perhaps this is out of date I don't know. Not a deal-breaker, though.

Put me down for the rotors plus yellowstuffs package. Prefer black finish rotors if available.

 

Good deals.... thinking about it.

The black finish is much nicer.

 

I will find out for you

 

I just called Joe he says those black ones are for domestic vehicles. The jdm vehicles come in gold finish. The gold wears off one the disc face. Only part that stays gold is the hub part. If you guys can please copy and paste the above list and ad your username and what kit your going with. Thanks

 

I'm gonna have to think this over.

 

When is this builk buy going to happen?

depending on time, I might want to get rotors too, but for now I will only be in for the pads unless there is some time from now till this happens.

 

Well I need them asap so I was hoping to keep this up for a week or 2. Cause I need the car on the road cause I literally have no brakes on my car

 

I'm in Mike for rotors and pads. Thanks for organizing!

 

hmm im going to take a day or two to think about the pads... kind of interested in the redstuff !!! thanks for organizing!

 

No problem, can you please select which pad setup you would like to go with and copy/paste the list and add yourself to it

 

...done

 

if anybody wants to know how these badboys look on an 8, i can post a pic of my VR with the same setup (3GD + Greenstuff)

 

^ please do, that would be cool.

 

Ye bro please post a pic. How do you like them? Why didn't u go with the reds? Curious. I wanna go red cause I hear much less dust and good bite

 

^^ k ill post them tomorrow.
When i first picked up my setup i had no idea what the greenstuff and redstuff were. I wanted a nice setup, so i was recommended the EBC + green. The owner of the store had it on his 350z, so it was something that could see and it looked good. If I were to choose again i'd go for red just because the dusting of the green makes the rotor orangy sometimes until you start driving and press the brakes again. It doesnt happen too often though.

either way both are waaaayyyyy better than stock that's for sure. Im happy with the setup i have now, definitely a great buy and a first mod for me lol.

 

as promised....
sorry for the crap self phone pics. The setup looks good but as mentioned you get excess brake dust with the green stuff when it rains, but quickly washes off when you use your brakes. and mind the rotor, it needs painting, and my winter rims.

 

does the rotor rust like that? I thought these arent supposed to rust?

 

i got my setup already, its ordered. 4 week waiting period. I got the last rear rotors in stock just waiting on the red stuff pads and front rotors. He gave me the deal for organizing the whole group buy. So come on 5 people 3-4 more people.

 

hmm i might look into this cause ill need to replace my rear pads soon. Is it okay to use oem pads for the front and EBC pads in the rear ?
