While my TR's Brembo's are great but it won't matter if other conditions aren't met.

Got this kit from ECS Tuning: Front And Rear Brake Kit (340x30/300x12) Featuring Brembo rotors and Ceramic OE Equivalent Pad www.ecstuning.com You do not need to remove rear caliper bracket to remove rotor. FYI. I used ODB11 to unlock the rear and you will need a brake caliper tool to compress and turn them in. DO NOT JUST COMPRESS THEM. While you are in there. Clean up around your sway bar links and other bushings. I like lubing them up a little just because why not while you are there.
Why not go brembo 18z you’ll have to buy rotors anyways. Then you just need pads, lines and some hardware. No special brackets for the front. I did the swap on my mk6 golf and love it
Brembo is a performance brake company. The brakes can last a pretty long time. They don't wear down fast, and perform fantastic.
Put a light cut on em and a set of Brembo pads and sent it. Good to go.
I’ve used kits like this before and that one is spot on. I have Brembo discs and pads on my car now, and do notice a bit more bite from the pedal this time, which is amwbag I was looking for. The downside is the brakes need a bit more heat in them before they’re effective, which is not the case with the Sebro/Textar setup.
To save you money, they probably did not need to change right rear caliper if only your left one was seized. They also could’ve given you options for prices on brakes and rotors as it appears they quoted you for dealer quality brake pads.
I'm running a Trueno, which has the factory Brembos. With the stock pads at a track with a decent amount of braking demand (at which I've had more severe brake issues in several other cars), I get about half way into a session before they start to fade... not bad, but enough to notice reduced performance (firm pedal, just longer braking zones). There's no doubt that running an actual track pad that's meant for the heat will completely resolve the issue.
Have recently had shudder with Brembo brakes on my 2018 Kia Stinger GT2 … 55k miles ….after inspection , need new rotors and pads.
Brembos are street pads, they are designed to be low noise and low dust. They’re not for any sort of aggressive driving.
