EBC Racing

EBC Racing for Porsche

The EBC Brakes Racing sub-division was formed in 2015 as EBC’s response to the growing track day and race market. Over the past 35 years, EBC Brakes has become a world leader in the performance road and intermediate track day market, establishing itself as the go-to brand for car enthusiasts all around the world looking to upgrade their vehicle’s brakes with quality UK made parts at justified prices.

Choosing the Right Fit for Your Porsche

With modern Porsche vehicles becoming increasingly heavy, coupled with ever higher power outputs, the demand placed on the brake system is higher than ever, particularly during on-track driving. Many standard braking systems are simply inadequate for high-performance driving and track use, especially in cases where the vehicle has been tuned. Where EBC Racing is listed for Porsche, use the supplied model coverage and OE references to confirm suitability. Check details that commonly affect fitment such as model year, side/position, and connector type where relevant.

• Typical reasons to choose EBC Racing on a Porsche include improving high-temperature capability, reducing fade and maintaining consistent braking during track days or spirited driving.
• Common issues that prompt upgrades include fade, pedal drop when hot, rapid pad wear, cracking or glazing, and noise, often made worse by old fluid, inadequate cooling or poor pad/disc pairing.
• Watch for symptoms such as vibration under braking, increased stopping distances, squealing, pulling to one side, warning lights or visible wear when assessing whether to refresh or upgrade brake components.
• Performance compounds and race pads can be noisier and may need heat to work optimally, so always check whether a given EBC compound is intended for road, fast-road or track-only use on your Porsche.
• For best results, combine any performance pad or disc upgrade with suitable high-temperature brake fluid, correct bedding-in procedures and good tyres.

Brakes — Brake components are renewed to restore stopping performance, address wear or upgrade a Porsche for fast road or track use. Common symptoms include vibration under braking, increased stopping distances, squealing, pulling to one side, warning lights and visible wear to discs and pads.

• Check model, axle (front/rear) and any notes on OE references or brake package when choosing parts.
• Follow recommended bedding-in procedures to stabilise friction and reduce noise.

SPORTS Brake Disc — Sport brake discs for Porsche are typically drilled, slotted or made from higher-spec materials to improve cooling, bite and consistency under harder driving. They are often chosen when standard discs show overheating, cracking, glazing or fade in aggressive use, especially on heavier or tuned models.

• Confirm whether discs are drilled, grooved or both, and whether they are suitable for your intended road or track use.
• Match discs with compatible pad compounds and follow running-in guidance to minimise the risk of noise or cracking.

EBC Brakes — EBC brakes offer a wide range of pads and discs for Porsche, from OE-style replacements to performance-focused options. They are used to restore safe stopping performance, tailor pedal feel and select compounds that suit daily driving, fast road use or light track work. Mixed or non-matched components can lead to noise, uneven wear and inconsistent friction.

• Use the driving style guidance (road, fast road, track) to select the appropriate EBC range for your Porsche.
• Consider fitting wear sensors and new fitting hardware where recommended for a trouble-free install.

EBC Racing Brake Disc — EBC Racing brake discs are heavier-duty motorsport-focused components aimed at track and competition-focused Porsche drivers. They are designed to cope better with racing temperatures where standard or road discs may crack, warp or fade.

• Check whether bells are included, disc style (plain or slotted) and any specific pairing recommendations with racing pad compounds.
• Monitor thickness and surface condition regularly when used on track, as racing use can accelerate wear.

EBC RP-1™ Racing Brake Pads — EBC RP-1™ pads are a competition compound offering linear pedal feel and high-temperature stability for serious track and race use. Standard or fast-road pads will usually fade quickly in full race conditions, leading to a long, soft pedal and inconsistent braking, so dedicated racing pads are chosen to maintain control.

• Confirm whether RP-1™ is suitable for road use in your region and check the operating temperature guidance before fitting.
• Follow the recommended bedding-in cycle and pair with appropriate discs and high-temperature fluid for consistent results.
