I upgraded to a two piece rotor (kit reused the stock caliper, I put EBC green pads in) and never had fade problems again.
If you’re going to track it. I’d get the STI just for the better brakes alone.
Slap some EBC RedStuff or YellowStuff Pads on & you'll change your mind quickly.
The Xtra ones are a bit better, harder breaking but will wear a bit quicker. I went with EBC RedStuff pads myself and they’re brilliant but at a minimum I’d be going for the Xtras here if you’re driving it hard.
If you enjoy driving, you should go for brembo brakes.
Traveling at 65mph on open road and a coyote comes running onto the road right infront of me from the open field. Slammed the brakes and got down to maybe 15mph, probably the quickest ive braked ever. Thanks EBC pads and rotors!!
EBC green brake pads have that fish smell too.
For road course, EBC yellows will be OK for beginning, but won’t last more then 3 or 4 days as you progress
I am on their RP-1 pads but I get terrible vibrations after they get heated. I suspect its because I didnt change rotors from my previous pads. I just thought they'd be rebedded after a few hard stops with the new pads.
Brembo are made under license and are rubbish.
