I had Greenstuff up front and now Akebono front and back. There is way less dust with the Akebono. Both can have a little less bite when cold. Overall, I think the Akebono is a bit more fade resistant and doesn't seem to need to get run hot to burn things off as much as the Greenstuffs. I didn't measure the rotors, but neither ate the rotors like the old OEM semi-metallic pads. Unless you doing crazy stuff, I'd keep it simple and go Saab ceramic or Akebono Euro which seem to be the same or close enough.
