What is the main benefit of the EBC Brake-in coating on the pads?

The patented Brake-in coating helps to quickly seat the new brake pads to the rotors after installation. This means you can achieve optimal braking performance sooner and reduce the risk of brake fade during the initial break-in period.

Do I need any special tools or modifications to install this kit?

No, this kit is designed as a direct fit replacement for your stock brake components. You should not need any special tools or modifications beyond what is typically required for a standard brake pad and rotor replacement.

What is included in the kit besides the pads and rotors?

In addition to the front brake pads and front rotors, this kit also includes caliper lube to assist with the installation process.

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 2001-2003 Mazda Protege a solid brake upgrade, this EBC S12 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a great way to go. This kit bundles EBC's high-efficiency Redstuff brake pads with their RK series rotors, designed to work together for improved stopping power and reduced dust, especially if you enjoy spirited driving or have a modified import. The pads use an Aramid fiber compound enhanced with ceramic granules, which helps them perform better across a wider speed range and significantly cuts down on brake dust compared to many other performance pads. They come fully shimmed, slotted, and chamfered, and feature EBC's Brake-in coating to help them seat quickly after installation, meaning you get great braking power with less chance of fade.

The included RK series rotors are direct fit OEM replacements, meaning they'll bolt right up without any modifications needed. They feature a Geomet anti-rust surface coating to help keep them looking good and protected from corrosion, and each rotor is balanced and runout tested to ensure smooth, vibration-free braking. This kit is a popular choice for muscle cars and premium imports looking for a noticeable improvement in braking performance without the hassle of excessive dust or brake fade. You'll save about 15% compared to buying the pads and rotors separately.
