EBC Bluestuff NDX Front Brake Pads DP52492NDX for 2019-2023 Audi RS6 and RS7

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. FMSI Pad No. D1899

• 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 engineered for aggressive street driving and select track applications. Designed for the 2019-2023 Audi RS6 and RS7, these pads use a high-friction compound that delivers strong initial bite from cold, progressive brake feel, and consistent stopping performance. The DP52492NDX pad set is especially well suited to vehicles equipped with quality aftermarket multi-piston calipers, larger rotors, and improved cooling.

Bluestuff NDX combines track-focused performance with street-oriented usability. Its low heat transfer helps reduce thermal stress on related brake components, while the compound is designed to be easy on rotors and provide excellent release characteristics. The material has also achieved ECE R90 approval, supporting its use where certified brake safety performance is required. As with any high-performance pad, results can vary on older street-based caliper systems affected by slider drag, caliper drag, limited pad area, or restricted cooling.

Construction features include a chemical interlayer for strong pad bonding and deep V grooves that help capture dust while improving venting. The smooth, unscored friction surfaces support even contact with the rotor, and the compound offers a long service life compared with earlier EBC performance pad materials. Each set includes the front brake pads required for the application. Professional installation and proper bedding are recommended before performance driving.

Fitment: 2019-2023 Audi RS6 C8 and Audi RS7 4G9 with compatible original or upgraded front brake systems. Confirm caliper and rotor configuration before ordering.
