Front and rear brakes

I'm needing new front brake pads and was thinking of upgrading to either EBC Greenstuff or Redstuff (is that a little too much for a 2.0?). I was also going to upgrade my discs at the same time - thinking either EBC Ultimax or BlackDiamond.

Would it be advisable to replace front and back together or would it be ok to run with just the fronts being changed at the moment?
 
EBC Pads wear your disks down more as there more aggresive imo and there poor when cold.

OTT for a 2.0

What's wrong with OEM?
 
ebc greenstuff are fine for your road car, i use resdtuff on my track car, i would not recomend red stuff for the road, they dont work when cold.
Greenstuff pads are very disc friendly, they wont wear out your disc's any quicker than normal pads.
 
I was planning on going for greenstuff but heard bad reports about them from some people. Still to make my mind up.

As fr the discs, should I be thinking of upgrading them? Should I be looking to replace front and rear at the same time?
 
standard disc's will be fine, greenstuff all round.
if you have the time, do front and rear at the same time, if not it doesnt realy matter.:)
