Rotors and brake pads set you back about 3k every 3 years. Very easy to replace on your own as well.
I put ebc sport rotors dimpled amd slotted and ebc yellow pads all around. Very nice race brakes for the street and can make abs activate if needed anytime paid 750 canadian for everything last black friday. Amazing for our heavy car. Trust me u need good brakes for our 3300 lb car on repeated hard hard braking amd sticky tires
Good brake pads 250 and 30 minutes of work.
Personally I like the EBC brake pads on mine because they are low dust and very grippy. Your wheels stay cleaner longer.
For me, this car is all about the brakes in terms of gaining lap time. You need to really trail hard into and during the corner and of course it’s a rocket after that.
I've tried alot of pads including; stop tech sports (309), EBC blue NDX, dixel ztypes and most recently EBC RPX on my 1st and 2nd gen BRZ. Out of all these I would recommend the EBC RPX.
They have higher fade resistance than the rest.
Ankle flicking power all session
Safe cold bite (5°C)
Only slight squeal on street.
I think ebc blue are pretty good for what you need. Only downsides are that they are dusting a lot and they're going to last only several track day sessions.
I haven't had any issue with yellow stuff on my 350Z doing hot track days in Miami. But the brakes don't last as long as they should. So I'm trying blue next time and I might go to the full track pads whenever that isn't enough.
Many years ago, I converted my 88 Cabriolet to Corrado G60 front brakes. The pads were junk. They ruined [caused the front rotors to warp] a couple sets of rotors before I pitched the pads.
I also have some EBC braided lines and yellow stuff on my ST. But I think I didn't really brake them in before using them very hard. Needed to brake from around 200kph for a corner on the Nurburgring and fried them. The bite it used to have is gone now, I think I overcooked them
