EBC GD1283 GD Sport Rear Brake Rotors for 2010–2013 Audi A3

All EBC rotors are made from OE spec grey cast iron, exactly as used on new car production and as many as we have tools for are BRITISH MADE wholly in our own UK foundry. Currently EVERY SINGLE ROTOR sold in Europe and the UK is BRITISH MADE and a majority of the designs specific to the USA are also BRITISH made.The British foundry is constantly expanding its in house tooled range but EBC like every brake manufacturer ....does need occasionally to buy some rotors in from approved sources to complete ranges in overseas markets. None of our competitors will ever tell you where their rotors come from and we at EBC are as disappointed as the rest of the world that cost pressure means there is not ONE foundry left in the USA to supply such parts, other brake brands when asked about origin will just sidestep the question. When we do buy rotors in, they are specified, sampled, tested for element analysis, grain structure, tensile strength, hardness and optimum ductility and tested 100 piece by piece to be perfect for runout on this in house machine. For FMSI Pad No. D340

• Removes dirt dust and debris from braking zone
• Anodized For Protection/Black For Domestics

Upgrade the braking performance of your 2010–2013 Audi A3 with EBC GD1283 GD Sport Rear Brake Rotors. Designed for drivers who demand consistent stopping power during daily driving, spirited road use, towing, or heavy-load conditions, these performance rotors feature wide precision-machined slots that help clear dirt, dust, gases, and debris from the braking surface. The result is improved pad contact, more consistent pedal response, and better resistance to brake fade under load and at speed.

EBC manufactures its rotors from OE-specification gray cast iron, the same basic material used in new-vehicle production. Each rotor is engineered for reliable strength, heat management, and dimensional consistency. When produced outside EBC’s British foundry, approved sources are held to strict requirements for material composition, grain structure, tensile strength, hardness, ductility, and runout. This quality-control process helps ensure dependable fitment and stable braking performance.

The EBC GD1283 uses a durable anodized finish for corrosion protection and a clean appearance behind the wheel. It is designed for use with FMSI pad number D340 and is suitable for rear brake applications on compatible Audi A3 models. These rotors are a practical performance upgrade for sedan, truck, SUV, and towing applications where improved cooling and reduced brake fade are priorities. Professional installation is recommended, and brake components should always be replaced in axle sets.
