Try emailing sales@ebcbrakesdirect.com and ask if they can supply you with Redstuff. They may be able to help.

If you ask one of the suppliers, they should be able to help, or even make they specifically for you. They were able to do it for my Toyota.
Sounds good Andy

I must try those for the SVX when I get it rolling.

I have always had the same 10% discount from ebcbrakesdirect. For some reason the discount only seems to appear at the checkout.

Need for Speed seem to be a reputable company so I would not anticipate any problems there.

I bought some greenstuff for my legacy. Cheapest I could find was powerstop. You could try them as another option.

http://www.powerstop.co.uk/

They sell front pads for the SVX at 39.65 inc VAT with free delivery (probably not free to Madrid!)

Phil.

Hello, I'm from Madrid (Spain) I want to know if you make Redstuff Pads for European Subaru SVX year 1994 and If yes what is the price?

Thank you,


Hi

We would
Either:
A physical drawing of the outline of the pads required (faxed to us) OR
Digital photos front and back of each type of pad required (emailed to us). IN BOTH CASES, we need dimensions in mm, left to right and top to bottom.
(Dimensions of the pad are as if you are placing the pad into a tight fitting box.)



Regards


EBC Brakes Direct Limited


But I will buy green at powerstop because it's easier and cheaper for me.
Thanks all for your help!

Just tell them that the pad design is the same as the Greenstuff that they already list.

Hiya,

Might be worth having a look at Demon Tweeks www.demon-tweeks.co.uk
they are 1 of the biggest motorsport parts supplier in the world and do mail order worldwide. I used to buy my EBC bits for my evo's, skylines and scoobies from them and used them for most of my motorsport parts for years.

Cant see why you would want reds on an svx, I actually went back to greens on my evo with brembo's as the reds were overkill for the road and were hardly ever at the optimum temp.

Darren

The new reds are different. They are amazing IMHO, with a much wider temp range. They have transformed my Forester braking so would be even better in the heavier car.

Hello, I made the order on 27th december and I'm still waiting the delivery because they don't have rear discs stock. They said to me last week that they will receive them hopefully this week so I hope to have discs and pads next week in Madrid...
