Why not just get the spoons or Mugen pads? Even EBC makes GreenSTuff pads for the Jazz - both GD1 and GD3. THat being said - if you guys would just help me out with my techie tread, this would be easypeasy :D

All EBC brakes are made in Europe - some in the UK, some in Germany. Its sold all over the world, and they are the only aftermarket brakesupplier with proper certification for the EU.

only? how abt Wilwood?
strepto

I dont know, but I fail to see the importance of where they are made. Both EBC and Wilwood are good brakes - but lets face it - Wilwood is in a totally diffrent class of brakes. You'd also wanna look at:

This is the internet. You can order things from all over the world, regardless of where you live :) If the EBC brakes are on the market - which we have established that they are - they are available to all the 6.5 billion people on this earth :)
Edit: Almost everyone. They don't ship to Rwanda!

hmmmmm...... I just took my Jazz to a track day and stock pads/rotors/fluid remained good, brakes did not fade and remained strong throughout the day. So, for myself, I can't justify spending that much on good brakes if stock works well. I guess if you can afford it, then why not, for me, I cant :(

I agree with SpoonFit. You cant go cheap on good brakes man. Its worth it regardless of street or track use!

I understand brakes is the most important part of a car but if the stock OEM brakes does the job - on road it works well and on track the stock brakes prove that they work well under high loads, then personally, for me there is no need for me to change.

I think you guys need to stop thinking so much, and start reading up :) OEM Honda brakes - in general - are OK. Nothing more then OK. It goes without saying, on a car like the Jazz, that the breaks are dimensioned for the car - which is - pardon my french - as lazy as a camels ass. Yes - it can be used on track - No - It was never ment for it.
I would swap out the stock pads for anything more then daily boring driving in the city. For the tracks this isn't an issue. You need better brakepads and you need better discs. THe stock discs will be eaten up on a track after a few laps because they are so soft. You need something stronger. I like the EBC ones because they are cheap, they are forged, and they are zinc-anodized which keeps them go longer. They are ventilated, which prevents overheating. For brakepads I use green EBC's for the street - and Spoons yellow for the track. Only on my ITR did i choose diffrently, and went for Endless Type CC-X Brake Pads.
Short summary: OEM Jazz brakes good for normal street driving - nothing more!
i m using EBC pads
On your stock disks, so which one you have the green one.
kimo is from egypt, so maybe EBC pads not available in there
They don't have them there but I know about EBC used them before used the green and the red. I believe the red is better, as I am the type who always heat up the pads and brake at the last moment, so this why the get very hot. Have anyone use the yellow one.

This is true - but I think they are good size for the stock car - not amazing, but better than average. And pretty decent brake fluid - this is one area I haven't seen Honda skimp on. Don't know about Norway but here our fronts are vented discs.

Put the brakes on right there! :D At recent trackdays here it was quite normal to do 10 or more laps without suffering any brake problems. Well, thats with the stock wheels. Since I upgraded wheels and got an inch wider rubber, I started to feel that my tyres were gripping the road harder than the brakes could bite.
But, I believe the same wonderful attributes that let the Jazz accelerate and corner on par with bigger competitors, also let it have more than adequate braking performance. Lap after lap, I stood hard on the brake pedal and the car stopped hard every time, the pedal remaining fairly constant in feel after the first couple of laps.
After a couple of these informal trackdays I still had 70-80% remaining on my new (Honda OEM) pads -- I think its fine to come to informal track days with the OEM brakes! After all, was it not Mr Ichishima of Spoon himself said the advantage of the Jazz is moderate tyre and brake wear?
