EBC Bluestuff NDX Front Brake Pads for 2022+ BMW 230 Coupe 2.0T - DP52522NDX

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.

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

Brief Description: EBC Bluestuff NDX front brake pads are designed for aggressive street driving and select track applications on the 2022 and newer BMW 230 Coupe 2.0T. Part number DP52522NDX uses a high-friction compound that delivers strong cold bite, progressive pedal feel, and reliable stopping performance. These pads are best suited to vehicles equipped with quality aftermarket calipers, improved cooling, and larger rotors. As with any high-performance brake pad, results can vary with older street-based caliper systems affected by caliper or slider drag.

The Bluestuff NDX compound is engineered to provide a useful balance between street usability and track performance. Low heat transfer helps reduce thermal loading through the braking system, while the pad design promotes consistent release and helps protect rotor surfaces. EBC’s chemical interlayer construction supports a strong pad bond, and deep V-grooves help capture debris while improving ventilation. EBC Bluestuff NDX has also been developed to meet ECE R90 brake safety requirements.
