This past two weekend I took the time to install my new EBC Brake Pads and Rotors.
I decided if I was going to do this I would do everything including, rebuilding my calipers and painting them as well as installing new stainless steel braided brake lines.
I have never rebuild a caliper before, but I see no reason to ever purchase anything other than a rebuild kit in the future. It really is quite simple to do the rebuild myself.

Here are some before and after pictures:

EBC recommends driving for couple hundred miles before bedding the pads, so I'll drive a little slower the next couple weeks and then bed them in per the EBC instructions.

I've had my EBC pads in the rear for years.. Great pads and still tons of life left

You should try reds. The stopping power is still really good but they don't make much dust at all

Looks good! What rebuild kit did you use for the calipers?

Thanks.. Just bought a 2gs this week and driving around today I can hear the telltale sounds of wear indicators.. I was wondering what pads I should look into.. Glad to hear EBC is still good.. I used to used Hawk in my old 240

I got a great deal on the EBC Stage 11 bundle, which included the EBC Rotors and Greenstuff pads.
They have much better breaking ability over whatever was on the car, but WOW do they put off some dust.
I am happy so far, but these will make me wash my car a lot more often.
From what I have read the Redstuff are a little more money but a lot less dusty!

I put my EBC reds on the in summer and no squeaks but in the winter they definitely squeak a bit until they warm up
