Product Details

If you're looking to significantly improve your Saab 9-3's stopping power for street use, this EBC S5 kit is a solid choice. It bundles EBC's flagship GG-rated Yellowstuff high-friction brake pads with their GD series vented sport rotors, designed to work together for maximum braking effect. This kit is specifically put together for your 1999-2002 Saab 9-3, meaning it's a direct fit with no modifications needed over your stock setup.

The Yellowstuff pads are fully shimmed, chamfered, and slotted, and feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating to help them seat quickly. They're matched with the GD series rotors, which have wide apertures and spot drilling. This design helps keep the brakes cooler and allows dust, gas, and debris to escape faster, leading to more consistent performance. The rotors also come with a Geomet anti-rust coating to protect them before installation.

This kit is a great way to upgrade your brakes, especially if you drive a fast street car. You'll get the benefit of buying the components together, often saving you about 15% compared to purchasing them separately. It includes the pads, rotors, and caliper lube to help you get the job done right.
