I have to agreed with this, they are worth the money.
I've just fitted EBC rotors and green stuff pads, and I can actually feel the improvement they have made. I've always said Jimny brakes are "adequate", but now upgrading my opinion to "good".
Its not just the fact they are new. I have fitted cheap enough Euro car part offerings a few years back and they worked ok, but still uninspiring. They stayed that way until the rotors failed with very little wear, hence the fitting of EBC to try something better.
I am never going back, staying with EBC from now on with the Jimny.
Don't know why it's taken so long with my cars, always fitted EBC to my motorbikes and they have always performed. That includes a few laps of the TT course as fast as my limited skill would allow, but it was faster than my Jimny travels.
Its good to see some visible figures to back up what I have just experienced
