EBC Bluestuff NDX Front Brake Pads DP51513/3NDX for 2018+ Audi TT RS Quattro

Bluestuff NDX is a high friction sport and race material that can be used for aggressive street driving and certain types of track use. The material has had much success on the track with quality aftermarket calipers (Multi piston systems with better release and cooling and larger rotors) and limited success with street based calipers where pad size and caliper drag can challenge any brake material. The biggest advantage of EBC Bluestuff NDX is their bite from cold and progressive brake feel and the ability to bring a car to a complete stop. This has led to the ECE R90 brake safety regulation approval of R90 which is now completed and certificates are being obtained (during July 2011). There are certain older street based caliper systems where even the new Bluestuff will have trouble handling the caliper and slider drag inherent in the systems but this scenario is exactly the same for our competitors. There is NO material that will be PERFECT on the track in all older street based caliper systems. Pad Dimensions: 95 x 75 x 14mm

• Chemical Interlayer Pad For Super Strong Pad Bond
• Deep V Grooves Catches Dirt Dust/Improves Venting
• Huge Lifetime Almost Double Previous EBC Products
• Surfaces Are Left Smooth And Not Scored
• Worlds First Street And True Track Pad
• Low Heat Transfer
• Easy On Rotors
• Great Release

EBC Bluestuff NDX front brake pads are designed for aggressive street driving and selected track applications on the 2018 and newer Audi TT RS Quattro. This high-friction sport and race compound provides strong cold bite, progressive pedal feel, and dependable stopping performance from the first application. The DP51513/3NDX pad set is engineered for use with performance brake systems, including upgraded multi-piston calipers and larger rotors that provide improved cooling and pad release.

Built for demanding driving, these EBC Bluestuff NDX pads feature a chemical interlayer for a strong pad bond, deep V grooves that help capture dust and improve ventilation, and low heat transfer to help protect the braking system. The smooth friction surfaces are designed to be easy on rotors while delivering consistent release and control. Compared with earlier EBC materials, Bluestuff NDX offers an extended service life and is suitable for drivers who need more aggressive performance than a conventional street pad can provide.

While Bluestuff NDX is developed for both street and track use, results may vary with older street-based caliper systems affected by inherent caliper or slider drag. This compound is best matched with properly maintained performance brake hardware and appropriate track preparation. EBC part number DP51513/3NDX is supplied as a front axle pad set for the 2018+ Audi TT RS Quattro.
