Gen1 here but just put on ebc rotors and pads all around.. fit great/work great. Have used ebc for years no issues.
In the end I went for EBC yellowstuff, this kit specifically:
If you want better stopping power, you could use ebc pads.
Ebc Green Stuff Pads and Rotors
I installed the same pads, much better than the OEMs. If you want you also don't have to reinstall the pad clips. The thin brass looking things. Not installing them makes it easier to see your pads and how much meat you have left. Also makes changing pads much quicker. The negative is that you might hear your pads rattle a little at first. I haven't noticed after the first couple of days.
EBC green stuff with EBC sport rotors if I remember correctly. They were easy to install and they've been great for about 5 years now.
I have tried EBC yellowstuff and Ferodo DS2500. EBC yellowstuff won't handle anything on track...they just melt, they arent bad for the price but I prefer the DS2500.
I have run the EBC RP-1s and currently am on the RP-X. The 1s were fine/no issues I just didnt like the lower Mu (less bite). These are a 1400+ deg F pad. I used them on street between track events without issue.
EBC's suck so it's nice they provide a chart with better pad options :)
I've used Yellow Stuff about 4 times on 4 different cars. I drive very aggressively on the street during midnight haulin ass events. First off, even on the street I glazed them on all 4 cars. The one car I fried them in one night, and they cooked my rotors too.
