Brake pads Brembo or OEM Toyota

Didn't need to even change the break pad more then once. Never need to to add oil because it never burned any. Even on its last oil change no sign of burning or sludge build up.

amazing truck - I daily drove one in California (gasoline 1fz-fe is arguably the best Toyota motor ever IMO) for several years. Geared for off-road, doesn't cruise comfortably on freeways above ~70mph. 12-13 miles per gallon city or highway, always the same number. It never stranded me, so very reliable.

I ended up buying the brembo pads after getting power stop. These brakes can squeak so go for the gold.

I did this with mine and they have been great so far, while saving some money.

The brembos make a big difference.

Brembo SA/SP material for good performance price ratio.

Brembo LA material for longevity vs performance ratio.

Stock brake pads lasted 3 track days which is insane for £65. Ive never had such good stock pads, I nearly always upgraded them and I'd never use stock pads on track as thats mental, but these are insane.

Brembo sind meiner Meinung nach nicht mehr das, was es mal war. In meinem Mazda quietschen die schon ordentlich, wobei die OEM das auch tun.

The oem brakes on my 2012 were lackluster and kept seizing pins or calipers so I fixed the problem for good

My brakes are overheating when I break the car from around 190kph (118mph) to around 30kph (19mph), I smell the brakes burning and see a lot of brake dust on the wheel. Even the brakes feel a bit spongy for a while after, but it firms back up.
