Brake pads EBC or OEM Toyota
I'm waiting for EBC brakes to come out with yellowstuff pads for the CX70/90; then I will get those!
A friend had a Cadillac ATS-V and putting EBC pads on it was a whole different thing, even on the Brembo 6 pot calipers.
The OE Brembo pads are "okay" and the EBC Blue Stuff will give you better bite though they're still dusty. I went with 2-piece rotors and Endless MX72+ pads.
My suggestions : Oil cooler, change break pads with ceramics (EBC redstuff), gallery gasket, replace half the exhaust line (the genuine rear silencer is a crime and heavy), rear tyres 285/35R19. Those things will make the car better, more reliable, safer (this car is 1.6t dry, you could be surprised with default brake attack) and widespread among Z lovers.
Now I’m a much happier camper with my EBC Yellowstuff’s.
I run a fleet of Camrys and use Toyota pads because I've found that they produce the least brake dust and I HATE dirty wheels.
I have EBC yellow pads on. But they are quite dusty. Apparently OEM are perfect if you aren\u2019t going to heavy
EBC green brake pads have that fish smell too.
EBC is known as the Exploding Brake Company and they still live up to that name...
Bought a 2012 Toyota Sequoia from Heritage Motors on Shore Drive with a fresh inspection on it, So I personally figured it'd be solid, as Sequoia's are known to be pretty dependable. Not only was it a lemon/some huge issues, but the brakes were slapped together with bubble gum and hopes and prayers. The brake pad on the passenger side was installed backwards, which I was shocked it didn't make noise on the test drive
