EBC S20 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit
2013–2022 Subaru BRZ
S20K1262
Overview:
The EBC S20 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a comprehensive braking solution designed specifically for the Subaru BRZ model years 2013 through 2022. This kit offers a cost-effective upgrade by combining high-performance Ultimax brake pads and direct-fit rotors for both front and rear axles, along with caliper lubricant to ensure smooth operation. Ideal for enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, this kit enhances braking efficiency, safety, and longevity by addressing all four corners of the vehicle simultaneously.
By renewing both front and rear brakes at the same time, the kit maximizes overall stopping power and balance, as rear brakes contribute up to 40% of your vehicle’s braking capacity. The EBC S20 kit is engineered to deliver consistent, reliable braking performance with reduced noise and improved pad bedding-in characteristics.
Key Features:
This kit combines advanced materials and precise engineering to provide superior braking performance and durability. Key features include:
- High-efficiency Ultimax EBC brake pads constructed with Aramid fiber for enhanced friction and wear resistance
- Pads fully shimmed and chamfered with patented EBC Brake-in coating for faster, smoother bedding-in after installation
- Direct-fit OEM replacement rotors featuring Geomet anti-rust surface coating to prevent corrosion and extend rotor life
- Vented rotors on the front axle and solid rotors on the rear for optimal heat dissipation and braking balance
- Rotors fully balanced and runout tested to ensure smooth, vibration-free braking
- Complete kit includes caliper lubricant to maintain proper caliper function and reduce noise
- Fits 5x100 bolt pattern front and rear with rotor diameters of 277mm (front) and 286mm (rear)
- Center bore diameter of 58mm front and rear for precise fitment
Construction & Design:
The EBC S20 kit is engineered with durability and performance in mind. The Ultimax pads utilize Aramid fiber, a high-strength synthetic material that provides excellent friction characteristics while minimizing wear and noise. Each pad is fully shimmed and chamfered to reduce vibration and brake squeal, while the patented Brake-in coating accelerates the bedding process, ensuring optimal pad-to-rotor contact from the start.
The rotors are manufactured as direct OEM replacements, ensuring perfect fitment without modifications. The Geomet anti-rust coating protects the rotor surface from corrosion, which is especially important in climates prone to moisture and road salt. Front rotors are vented to dissipate heat efficiently during heavy braking, while the solid rear rotors provide consistent stopping power and durability.
Installation & Fitment:
Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the Subaru BRZ (2013–2022), installation is straightforward with no modifications required. The kit includes all necessary components for both front and rear brake systems, allowing for a complete brake refresh in one service. Caliper lubricant is provided to ensure smooth caliper operation and prevent sticking or noise. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper torque specifications and brake system bleeding for optimal performance.
What's Included:
- Front and rear Ultimax EBC brake pads (FMSI Pad No. D1539/D1114)
- Front vented rotors (277mm diameter)
- Rear solid rotors (286mm diameter)
- Caliper lubricant for front and rear calipers
Ideal For:
This brake pad and rotor kit is ideal for Subaru BRZ owners seeking a reliable, high-quality brake upgrade that improves stopping power and longevity. It suits daily drivers who want enhanced safety and reduced maintenance intervals, as well as enthusiasts who require consistent performance for spirited driving. The kit’s balanced front and rear components ensure stable braking dynamics and confidence under all driving conditions.
