What exactly is included in the EBC S9KF1789 kit?

This kit includes a full set of EBC Yellowstuff front brake pads, EBC USR front sport-slotted rotors, and caliper lube. It's designed to be a complete front brake replacement package.

How do the USR slotted rotors differ from standard rotors?

The USR rotors feature a fine slotting pattern that helps reduce wind noise compared to more aggressive slots. These slots also help to clear dust and gas from the pad surface, maintaining consistent braking performance.

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

The patented Brake-in coating on the Yellowstuff pads is a special surface treatment that helps to quickly and efficiently seat the pads onto the new rotors. This ensures optimal performance from the start and reduces the break-in period.

About this part

Product Details

When you're looking to get the most out of your Acura ILX's braking system, this EBC S9 kit is a solid choice. What you get in this box is a complete front brake upgrade: EBC's flagship GG-rated Yellowstuff high-friction pads, their USR sport-slotted rotors, and even a packet of caliper lube to help with the installation. This kit is designed as a direct fit, meaning you won't need to make any modifications to your stock setup to get it installed.

The Yellowstuff pads are known for their high friction compound, giving you maximum braking effect, and they come fully shimmed, chamfered, and slotted for a smooth, quiet operation. They also feature EBC's patented Brake-in coating, which helps seat the pads quickly and efficiently onto the rotors. Speaking of rotors, the USR fine-slotted rotors in this kit are a step up from plain blanks. The fine slots help to reduce wind noise compared to more aggressive slotting patterns, while still doing a great job of clearing out dust and gas from the pad surface. Plus, the rotors are treated with a Geomet anti-rust coating to keep them looking good and protected.

This kit is a popular option for ILX owners who want a noticeable improvement in their car's stopping performance for both street driving and occasional track use. It's a well-built package that takes the guesswork out of choosing compatible high-performance brake components.
