I replaced the rotors with standard non-slotted/drilled Brembo rotors and Toyota factory pads - is it necessary to "bed" them in? I did a search and am suprised this has never been discussed. So far, I've just been braking normally to seat the pads to the rotors, but I'm getting close to 300 miles on the pads and this is when you would typically bed them in if needed.

do a couple stops from 30 mph, then another few at 50 then another few at 70 and your in business. any and all pads/rotors should be broken in like this with ample time in between for proper cooling so the brakes 1. seat properly and 2. dont warp during break-in. after all of this abuse them all you want they will be ready for it.
