What is included in the EBC S5 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit?

This kit includes a full set of EBC Yellowstuff front brake pads, a pair of EBC GD series slotted and vented front brake rotors, and caliper lube for installation. It's designed to be a complete front brake upgrade.

Do I need any special tools or modifications to install this kit on my Saab 9-3?

No, this kit is designed as a direct fit for your Saab 9-3 and requires no changes over the stock setup. Standard brake replacement tools will be needed, and you should refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for details.

What is the benefit of the slotted rotors and the Brake-In coating on the pads?

The wide-aperture slots on the rotors help to vent dust, gas, and debris away from the pad surface, which keeps the brakes cooler and maintains consistent stopping power. The Brake-In coating on the Yellowstuff pads helps them seat quickly to the new rotors for optimal performance right away.

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 2003-2011 Saab 9-3 a serious brake upgrade, this EBC S5 kit is a solid choice. It bundles EBC's flagship GG-rated Yellowstuff brake pads with their GD series sport rotors, designed to work together for maximum stopping effect. This kit is specifically put together to give you a noticeable improvement over your stock brakes, especially if you drive a performance-oriented street car or a fast sedan like your 9-3.

The Yellowstuff pads are known for their high friction compound, which means they grab hard right out of the box. They come fully shimmed and chamfered, and feature a patented EBC Brake-In coating to help them seat quickly with the rotors. Speaking of rotors, the GD series ones in this kit are vented and feature wide-aperture slots. These slots aren't just for looks; they help vent dust, gas, and debris away from the pad surface, keeping your brakes cooler and maintaining consistent performance, even during spirited driving. The rotors also have a Geomet anti-rust coating to help them look good and resist corrosion over time.

This kit is designed as a direct fit for your Saab 9-3, meaning no modifications are needed over your stock setup. You get everything you need for the front brakes, including the pads, rotors, and even caliper lube to help with installation. It's a comprehensive package aimed at giving you the best possible street brake performance.
