Get some powerstop z23's. You wont regret it.
They are Brembo brakes so can be done anywhere.
If your car is spec'd for Brembo brake pads, they probably weren't fully needed in yet, which is 100% normal.
I'm running Z26 Pads front & rear on my '20 with DBA T3 Rotors. Performance is excellent. I don't get the squeal others have reported with the Z26 pads. I had originally installed the DBA XP Pads but they were too dusty for my liking.
I'm currently running Z23 pads with DBA rotors (slotted, so the wear on the pads should be similar to the Z26 rotors). The PowerStop pads have less initial bite, but I personally feel like they brake harder at max brake pressure than OEM pads. It takes a bit to get used to, but it feels fine long term.
I got PowerStop Z26 pads and steel braided brake lines to go with my brembos and they’re great. They’re quiet and leave very little brake dust.
I just did my brakes for the first time. Way easier than I expected. I think I spent $700 on front and back Powerstop Z36 pads and rotors.
I had Z26s on my first TSX. Those things made my stock brakes feel like a joke. They also look cool on the car too. I'm planning to get them again for my current tsx when it's time to replace my pads.
I used their pads on my mustang and they had good stopping power but they were loud.
This time the shims on the back of my new Brembo brake pads are rotating? Weird! Can’t figure out the mechanics of that happening. Doesn’t make any sense. Only a month old.
