Brake pads EBC or OEM Toyota
I went with Genracer’s offering of EBC red stuff pads and EBC oe replacement rotors. The price was very reasonable and I don’t track the car, only do some spirited driving. So far I like them but LOVE the reduced brake dust.
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.
New EBC/TRW pads, rotors and calipers front and back. New super dot fluid, several ABS bleed procedures, new clutch master and new slave cylinder. I put a new German/OE brake booster hose that attaches to the manifold. The new one tightened the pedal up for sure but it still stops slowly with decent pressure on the pedal
I'm at 70k km and have changed only front braking pads so far. OEM braking pads and rotors suck. I've switched to EBC brakes brand based on the recs of my familiar Mazda owners and will never come back to the stock shit.
Just changed a 4Runner with 80k miles, the pads were worn flat all the way down.
