I'm thinking EBC Greenstuff for the 75, but are there any better options?
(Brake upgrades will be done one bit at a time, 'cos I don't want to spend £200 on discs, pads and fluids if all it needs is a new set of pads, IYSWIM)
Don't bother with greens, get Reds, or Red ceramics if you want EBC. But M1144 intex are cool, as are Ferodo DS2500 pads.
If you can find them, look for Akebono Ceramics.

Rack sell them but I'm not sure about for the 75.You will need to import them, and they won't have an E mark, but they=20work really well, don't need bedding in, don't wear quickly, make f*ck=20all dust, and when you upgrade the discs later to grooved ones, it will=20make the braking effect of the pads even better. I had them on the GT4. They worked really well with DBA discs.=20

I got mine from SRB power as a group buy with the GT4 club but they were=20 really cheap but incredibly solild, but I'm sure they could arrange=20 something. They are machined out of Brembo blanks.=20
I've got Hawk pads on the TT RX-7 and I'm very impressed with them compared to the standard ones. In fact, I'll be getting some for the convertible as well. Produce quite a lot of dust, though.
After previous experience I wouldn't touch anything made by EBC with someone else's bargepole.
Green's are for low power light stuff. You *might* get away with them, but to be honest, you'd be better off with reds, yellows or blacks. I'd avoid the greens for track use on anything over a Saxo VTS really.
For a start, the brakes are bigger to start with and secondly, you're not hammering the pedal to the floor every 20 seconds from 80-100mph every lap......
Well they'll be better than the stock ones heh, but not as goods as the Mintex or Ferodo options. The only people that have really had problems with GreenStuffs are people putting them on heavy and high power stuff - the fact they even make them for Scoobies etc is a joke heh. I ran them on my
405 (low power and light by comparison to todays stuff at 1050kg) and they were fine, and pretty good. Cheap too.
