Brake pads Brembo or EBC

I'm waiting for EBC brakes to come out with yellowstuff pads for the CX70/90; then I will get those!

A friend had a Cadillac ATS-V and putting EBC pads on it was a whole different thing, even on the Brembo 6 pot calipers.

The OE Brembo pads are "okay" and the EBC Blue Stuff will give you better bite though they're still dusty. I went with 2-piece rotors and Endless MX72+ pads.

I personally like the Brembo SR they work both cold/wet and hot, they're noticeably better than the SA pads they have.

My suggestions : Oil cooler, change break pads with ceramics (EBC redstuff), gallery gasket, replace half the exhaust line (the genuine rear silencer is a crime and heavy), rear tyres 285/35R19. Those things will make the car better, more reliable, safer (this car is 1.6t dry, you could be surprised with default brake attack) and widespread among Z lovers.

The M-Sport brakes are more than a pretty face. There is so much stopping power. A car this size has no business being able to decelerate this fast, yet anytime you push the pedal, there’s always more to be had. I don’t think I’ve driven a car of any size that can compare to the kung-fu grip that those Brembos have. Paired with the 22’ wheels, ABS is almost irrelevant because there’s no locking, just stopping.

I put brembo pads and discs last time and I got about 4 years out of them before gave up (I'm pretty hard on them).

Just wish they didn’t squeal…..

EBC is known as the Exploding Brake Company and they still live up to that name...

Brembos are very overrated I’ve had them on 6 different cars now and holy the brake dust is insane would not recommend
