I upgraded to a two piece rotor (kit reused the stock caliper, I put EBC green pads in) and never had fade problems again.

Pros: no more fade problems

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.

Pros: harder breaking, brilliant

Cons: wear a bit quicker

Pros: quickest ive braked ever

EBC red stuff or Hawk HPS 5.0 pads. Both are better performing than stock and create less dust.

Pros: better performing, less dust

Good to know EBC quality control still sucks. I had a pair of their pads come apart, literally the meat of the friction material sheared off the backing plate.

Cons: quality control sucks
