Running EBC SR-11 brake pads as a dual purpose pad?

That's so weird I have zero noise on my sr11 after tracking last week

I found the lack of modulation on the road was enough for me to remove these. They are just always on and just stops too suddenly on the road

I keep mine on all the time but don’t really daily the car, they are definitely not the best pads as far as modulation and specially when cold, however they do have bite right away unlike some track pads and that is important for a “dual” duty pad.

I like mine and specially for the price I don’t think there is better. For double the price id love to try gsc and ferodo is always amazing.

I think I'll swap mine in the winter. I ran them last winter but had a few times where the pad stuck to the rotor. Only in winter though. They do grab quite a bit ?

I use them dual purpose I'll try to answer:

Rear pads I was running EBC blue, but those are backordered. I tried to order RP-1, also backordered. Currently on Dixcel Z type, which is a "dual purpose" pad. It's fine, the price was right.

Make sure to do fluid also. Castrol SRF

How was the wear with EBC NDX in the back and SR11 in the front? NDX has a higher Mu than SR11 right?

I can answer this too cuz I ran the same. The wear was fine. But they wore down twice as fast as the SR11, maybe even more. This is a type R thing though unless you are doing the pedal dance. That said they lasted a good amount of time, I think I had like 2 track days and like 11 autox (lime rock auto X so you get insane amount of seat time, like 45min to an hour and I am not pedal dancing and on a short course with a lot of turns the car is using the rears to rotate and they still lasted a good amount)

Thank you, how is the brake dust? I know with the DTC-60 if you don't clean it right away it will embed into a hard to remove mess.
