The prob with EBC brakes is quality control, some pads work fine while others of the same type are crap.

I had a set of redstuff pads that lasted 3 days, honestly!

The DS2500's would be a better & safer option.

3 days on the road?

I drove about 60 miles all on B roads today with some harsh braking involved.

I had them on my RB5 with the 4 pot brakes they used to start smoking and fade after stamping on them at 100+ a few times but to be fair they were better and cheaper that oem pads and lasted longer...

8 pots are just over kill bling shit. 4 pots with decent sized discs and materials is more than enough for a 300bhp+ impreza

I have been called "a lunatic" before but i put it down to a well set up car & good tyres allowing me to produce good times on the hills.
