What is the EBC Brake-in coating on the pads?

The EBC Brake-in coating is a patented surface treatment on the Bluestuff pads. It helps to accelerate the bedding-in process, allowing the pads to mate effectively with the rotor surface for optimal performance sooner after installation.

What is the benefit of dimpled and slotted rotors?

The dimples on the rotors help with heat dissipation, while the slots are designed to sweep away brake dust and gases. This combination helps maintain consistent braking performance, especially under heavy use, and can prevent brake fade.

Does this kit include everything needed for the front brakes?

This kit includes the EBC Bluestuff brake pads and the EBC GD series front rotors. It is designed as a direct replacement for your Saab 9-3's front braking components. You may need to reuse existing hardware or purchase new hardware separately depending on your vehicle's condition.

Product Details

If you're looking to significantly improve your Saab 9-3's braking performance, especially for spirited driving or track days, the EBC S6 Brake Pad and Rotor Kit is a solid choice. This kit brings together EBC's high-performance Bluestuff brake pads with their GD series performance rotors, designed to work as a matched set for your 2006-2011 Saab 9-3. You're getting a complete front brake upgrade that offers a noticeable step up from stock.

The Bluestuff pads included in this kit are known for their ultra-high friction capabilities, making them effective both when cold for street driving and at the high temperatures encountered during track use. They come with EBC's patented Brake-in coating, which helps to seat the pads to the rotors quickly and efficiently, ensuring you get optimal performance right away. Paired with these pads are the EBC GD series rotors. These are premium, vented rotors featuring a dimpled and slotted design. The slots help to sweep away dust and gas that can build up between the pad and rotor surface, maintaining consistent braking power, while the dimples help with heat dissipation. The rotors are also treated with a Geomet anti-rust coating to protect them from corrosion, and they undergo balancing and run-out testing to ensure smooth operation.

This kit is designed to be a direct fit for your Saab 9-3, simplifying the installation process. By purchasing the kit, you also save about 10% compared to buying the pads and rotors separately. It's a well-built package aimed at drivers who demand more from their braking system.
