stay away from ebc drilled and grooved discs as they fade when really hot and also make a noise when under braking. i would advise either EP3 front pads and discs with a caliper swap or standard EP2 disc's with performance pads like ebc green stuff pads.

I agree with the fact that the ebc drilled and grooved disc makes a noise under heavy braking... as i have them on my EP2, they are a good set of upgraded brake discs overall but there are far more better options in the market

Mate mine are well quiet.  EBC turbo groove, Spoon 4 pots and S2000 pads with stainless stell hoses.  No noise at all and no fade either?

Best

standard ep3 discs and pads all round will stop a 300bhp civic on a 20 minute track session with minimal fade.

uprate to ferodo ds2500 for fast road, or ds3000 for heavy track use!

oem honda ep3 discs are really rather good!

oh, oem ep3 discs approx 150 for set of four, ferodo pad around 80 pounds a pair.

cheap powerful braking  Cool

cheers, sam.
