As we plan to do High Performance Driver Education (HPDE) events and track days in the future, plus the fact that our brake pads were rather worn, as well as brake lines that should be replaced according to research I did on service life.
List of parts:
Brake Pads (Front): Carbotech XP10 - CT929 - Subaru BRZ / Toyota GT86 / Scion FR-S (Front)
Brake Pads (Rear): Carbotech XP10 - CT1124 - Subaru BRZ / Toyota GT86 / Scion FR-S (Rear)
Rotors (Front): StopTech - Premium Blank Rotor - BRZ/FRS/GT86 - USDM Front
Rotors (Rear): StopTech - Premium Blank Rotor - BRZ/FRS/GT86 - USDM Rear
Brake Lines (Front): StopTech - Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines - Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S / Toyota GT86 - FRONT
Brake Lines (Rear): StopTech - Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines - Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S / Toyota GT86 - REAR
Brake Fluid: Project Mu G-Four 335 Racing Brake Fluid - DOT 4
The brake pads have a very nice orange color. I like how it shows through the brake calipers and wheels.The pads themselves are not that bad.
Attempting to do the brake lines though, especially when you do not have the correct wrench, is not a good plan. We wound up having Smooth Automotive do the brake line install. Part of the issue is we ran out of time on the day we were doing the pads.
The rears were super fast and easy, and it got progressively easier as we did them.
It is interesting seeing the drum brakes that work as the parking brakes.
Overall a good install process.
Also, for the photos I edited them in Adobe Lightroom Classic along with some of the FroPack presets.
