I know certain members here on the board insists on EBC greenstuff. See posts here:

I've recently come across a heated discussion regarding Greensuck pads on a Miata forum. Posted an abridged version of the thread here:

and read another BMW review here:

I've uesd Greenstuff pads on my behemoth of a car, MB 300CE. It was coupled with fresh Brembo rotors and I always do the 'break-in/bedding' on every fresh pair of pads. While I didn't end up w/ warped rotors, I did find that these pads are surprisingly lacking in stopping power. They just couldn't stop worth s**t. These pads are overpriced and overrated.
I believe my sentiments are echoed by a few saabers:
