Brake pads EBC or OEM KIA
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
Personally I like the EBC brake pads on mine because they are low dust and very grippy. Your wheels stay cleaner longer.
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.
It’s got 102,700kms on the clock and owned it since new. I’m still on my first set of brake pads.
I have EBC SR-11s, 3 track days and like 8k street miles of them. Very very embarrassingly noisy but they still got 80% life left at least. And they don\u2019t wear the rotor like crazy either.
I use Reds and they are pretty good and no sounds that I’m aware of coming out of them. They stop very well
Aftermarket on some newer Kia models can cause judder.
EBC yellow is really more of a daily driver pad than a track pad. I have them on my Golf R and they faded easily on the track. Great on the street though
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
