Wouldnt bother with drilled discs, as you will see no benefit. The greenstuff pads are fine for road use, but can wear down a little quick. Personally id go for some Ferodo ds2500 pads or Mintex 1144's.

As above never rated the EBC stuff much and on a road car not worth it drilled discs will just give less braking surface area on a road car used for track/race cars to get rid of the gasses caused by the constant high heats :)

Yeah, they will be fine. But as said id recommend the ferodo or mintex pads over the green stuff.
