Saab 9000 - 1989-1998 - All models
The brake discs have OE part reference number 4002150 (EBC number GD462). The brake pads have OE part reference number 5055769 (EBC number DP3751).
Since this material was introduced in late 2003, it has received many positive write ups from performance drivers of faster cars such as the Impreza. This is a truly impressive fast road pad for repeated heavy braking. It emits far less dust than semi-metallic pads and has been proven to stop a passenger car/saloon/sport compact/hot hatch 13 metres quicker than OEM pads from 100mph/160kph.
All EBC Red Stuff pads feature EBC's Brake-In technology, this is a mild abrasive red coloured coating applied to the surface of the pads. It helps reduce bed-in time significantly and lightly scrubs the brake disc after new pad installation allowing optimum braking to be achieved faster.
- Faster Street / Rally Use
- Brake well from cold
- Excellent Fade Resistance
- Effective to above 750°C
- Lower dust formula
- E-marked and approved for highway use
EBC Turbo Groove Discs have a wider slot which actually draws cool air across the pad surface keeping pads and rotors cooler. Turbo Groove Discs also expel dust, dirt and hot gases better than fine slots which eventually fill with rust and scale and become ineffective in our opinion. EBC discs use blind drilled holes to break down surface gases when braking from speed but do not weaken the rotor cross section as can happen with through drilling, thereby lessening the chance of rotors cracking over time and heavy use.
