The EBC FA606HH are a good upgrade. Great feel and initial bite.
I upgraded to a two piece rotor (kit reused the stock caliper, I put EBC green pads in) and never had fade problems again.
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.
Traveling at 65mph on open road and a coyote comes running onto the road right infront of me from the open field. Slammed the brakes and got down to maybe 15mph, probably the quickest ive braked ever. Thanks EBC pads and rotors!!
EBC red stuff or Hawk HPS 5.0 pads. Both are better performing than stock and create less dust.
For road course, EBC yellows will be OK for beginning, but won’t last more then 3 or 4 days as you progress
I always used EBC black organic pads; I tried HH pads briefly a few times but never liked the feel, especially in the rain.
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.
Avoid the EBC blue stuff pads with those rotors, in case you're looking. They're super squeaky, even after a couple thousand miles, and seem to tend to put deposits on the rotors that make them feel like they're warped.
