Brake pads Bosch or Ferodo
If you have 312 mm front rotors I'd suggest to upgrade to FER-FCP4433G
DS3.12 pads https://www.brakes-shop.com/fer-fcp4433g-ferodo-ds3-12-brake-pads-front.html and Motul 600 / 660 brake fluid (or Castrol React SRF).
With this setup you will be limited by your tyres and suspension.
Don't buy DBA rotors and pads or EBC pads. You will destroy them (like crack in pieces).
Don't run with OEM fluid or pads \u2014 you will definitely lose stopping power relatively early on.
I used the Bosch Quietcast from Rock Auto. Works great for me as a daily and there is minimal brake dust.
After replacing the brakes with Bosch and tires with Michelin CrossClimate, over 30k miles later and brakes have at least another 50-60k life left, and tires too, since they have 80k miles warranty.
Back in May I swapped OEM pads for Ferodo DS2500 for my first track day in my GR86. Otherwise the car is bone stock. I noticed some slight pulsing of the steering wheel but only during hard braking (100 to 30mph). No brake fade that I noticed.
You’ll be good either way. Bosch is great
Bosch, Powerstop, Dynamic Friction, Brembo blanks, and Akebono are awesome alternatives.
I've used Bosch brakes, they are very good.
Ferodo DS2500 feel good but don't last as long as the CP's and have a bit more dust.
Fairly okay with the ferodo ds2500, they're not made for longer than 20min sessions tho. They will fade and overheat.
jai des ds2500 et mes freins sifflent tres fort cest chiant
