EBC Extra Duty Rear Brake Pads

2013–2020 Subaru BRZ, 2013–2016 Scion FR-S, 2017–2020 Toyota 86

Part #: ED93037

Overview

The EBC Extra Duty Rear Brake Pads are engineered specifically for the Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota 86 models, delivering exceptional braking performance tailored to these sporty vehicles. Developed at EBC’s UK EFI Bristol factory, these pads utilize advanced eco-friendly technology to provide unusually high friction levels while maintaining smooth and predictable brake feel suitable for everyday street use. From the very first application, the pads offer strong braking response even when cold, ensuring safety and confidence in all driving conditions.

Designed with a race-proven friction material, these pads excel under demanding conditions, maintaining effective stopping power at temperatures exceeding 1400°F. This makes them ideal for spirited driving, towing, or navigating steep downhill descents without fade. Their versatility is further demonstrated by rigorous winter testing in harsh wet and cold environments, proving reliable cold braking performance where many other performance pads fall short.

Key Features

The EBC Extra Duty Rear Brake Pads combine innovative materials and design to deliver a balanced blend of performance, durability, and comfort. Key features include:

• High friction carbon granule-based material for strong braking power
• Effective brake response from cold, enhancing safety in all conditions
• Exceptional heat tolerance, performing reliably at temperatures above 1400°F
• Eco-friendly formulation developed with new technology at EBC’s UK factory
• Minimal brake dust generation, keeping wheels cleaner
• Quiet operation with noiseless braking characteristics
• Rotor-friendly design to reduce wear and extend rotor life
• Includes revolutionary NUCAP piston insert shims for improved brake feel and reduced noise
• Extensively tested in winter conditions to ensure dependable cold and wet weather braking

Construction & Design

The Extra Duty pads feature a unique carbon granule-based friction material that balances aggressive stopping power with rotor friendliness. This advanced compound is engineered to withstand extreme heat without fading, making it suitable for both daily driving and more demanding scenarios such as towing or spirited mountain descents. The pads are manufactured with precision to ensure consistent performance and durability.

Additionally, the inclusion of NUCAP piston insert shims is a notable innovation from EBC. These shims help reduce brake noise and vibration by improving piston movement within the caliper, contributing to a smoother and quieter braking experience. The overall design prioritizes longevity, environmental responsibility, and driver comfort.

Performance & Sound

These brake pads deliver strong, consistent braking performance from the moment the pedal is pressed, even in cold conditions where many performance pads struggle. The carbon-based material ensures excellent modulation and pedal feel, allowing drivers to confidently control braking force. Noise is minimized thanks to the NUCAP shims and the pad’s formulation, providing a quiet and comfortable driving experience without compromising stopping power.

Installation & Fitment

The EBC Extra Duty Rear Brake Pads are direct replacements for the rear brake pads on 2013–2020 Subaru BRZ, 2013–2016 Scion FR-S, and 2017–2020 Toyota 86 models. Installation requires no modifications and fits precisely with the factory brake calipers and rotors. Professional installation is recommended to ensure optimal performance and safety, but the pads are designed for straightforward bolt-on replacement.
