Brake pads EBC or Bosch
EBC makes great pads and discs. Have them on my NB and they've been solid for like two or three years now after the Brembos warped themselves.
The EBC RP-1 pads seem to have good road manners.
I have the performance pack, went with OEM rotors and EBC red stuff pads.
I installed EBC Yellowstuff pads and at first they squeeled every stop. 5K miles later it diminished substantially.
I personally installed your first picture and love them. They have noticeably more “initial bite” when braking and just quicker braking overall. If I remember correctly the EBC Red make less dust than stock.
I have EBC reds with stop tech slotted and drilled rotors.
I got EBC Yellow Stuff. Excellent performance. I haven’t experienced brake fade yet and I drive pretty damn spiritedly on my local backroads. The only con is there’s a shit ton of brake dust
EBC red. Yellow likes to squeal loudly if it isnt warm.
I burned through a set in 1 day in my WRX, then tried EBC blues and also burned through a set of those in one day.
If you’re going to run lap after lap they don’t hold up.
