EBC | Bluestuff NDX Trackday Front Brake Pads | Lotus | Emira | 2022+

Bluestuff NDX is a high-performance 0.52 Mu entry-level race pad that is R90 approved for most applications. With a quick bed-in process and a medium-plus lifespan, it is an ideal choice for track days and competitive racing. This compound has been a trusted option in the BMW Cup Series for several seasons.

For lighter vehicles, pairing the B version on the rear axle—offering slightly lower friction—with NDX on the front can help optimize brake balance for improved control.

Rotor Condition

Ensuring rotors are in near-perfect flat condition is crucial, as uneven, grooved, or ribbed surfaces can triple bed-in times for both street and track use.

EBC Yellowstuff is a harder, more durable pad, requiring smooth rotors for optimal performance.

If resurfacing is needed, EBC strongly recommends using high-quality ON-CAR brake lathes from Pro-Cut for the best results.

Pad Lifetime

Track Use: Inspect pads every 30 laps and replace them when the friction material reaches 3mm (1/8 inch) to prevent brake fade.

Street Use: Expect a significantly longer lifespan—20,000 miles or more, even under aggressive driving conditions.

Cooling & Caliper Drag

Simply installing a race pad does not instantly make a street brake system track-ready.

Additional cooling ducts may be necessary to prevent excessive heat buildup and extend pad and rotor life during racing conditions.

Using Bluestuff NDX as a Street-Only Pad

In Europe, brake pads must meet ECE R90 certification for legal road use.

Bluestuff is not R90 approved for all vehicles—check approval status before using it on public roads.
