Brake pads EBC or OEM Subaru
I went with EBC slotted with EBC red pads and it made a total difference in the bite and consistency of the braking on my 7.5.
I run the dimpled and slotted versions along with EBC yellow pads and they grab WAY better than stock in every comparable way. The initial bite on the pads when cold and hot is significantly better and they resist heat much longer too.
Running EBC Yellow's at the moment.
I went with EBC Reds (ceramic, low dust) as they have a decent reputation. EBC brakes do not include the standard brake kit hardware.
I'm currently running EBC yellows which have done me well for daily use(if you don't mind the dust), Autobahn driving, and on Spa and the Nurburgring.
EBC Blue Stuff on stock rotors for me. Zero regrets. Everything I own gets EBC blue stuff from now on. Incredible grip. Very low dust that rinses away. I didn\u2019t know brakes could be like this and I\u2019ve driven hundreds of thousands of miles on all sorts of brakes. I am not tracking them, but my everyday drives bear some similarities.
the VB brakes are fine until they get really hot at which point they fade badly.
personally, yeah i don't find the brakes to be particularly worse than my other non performance cars. i did feel like that at first but once i got used to it it was no issue.
I ordered ebc pads for the front and they got here and they're way too small.
The EBC blues are not track pads... Despite how they market them. Once they cool from behind very hot they glaze over...
