EBC GD729 GD Sport Front Brake Rotors for 2004-2006 Saab 9-2X and 1995-2001 Subaru Impreza

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. D1539

Upgrade braking performance with EBC GD729 GD Sport Front Brake Rotors, engineered for select 2004-2006 Saab 9-2X models and 1995-2001 Subaru Impreza models excluding WRX applications. Designed for use with FMSI Pad No. D1539, these rotors feature wide directional slots that help clear dirt, dust, and debris from the braking zone while promoting cooler operation during demanding driving, towing, and hauling conditions.

EBC manufactures its rotors from OE-spec gray cast iron, the same type of material used in new vehicle production. EBC GD Sport rotors are precision engineered and tested for runout, hardness, tensile strength, grain structure, ductility, and material composition to support consistent fit and dependable braking performance. The slot design helps reduce brake fade under load and at speed, making these front rotors suitable for trucks, SUVs, towing applications, and performance-oriented sedan use.

The EBC GD729 is finished with a protective anodized coating intended to help resist corrosion during storage and service. Confirm vehicle application, brake package, and pad compatibility before installation. Professional installation is recommended, and all brake components should be inspected and installed according to the vehicle manufacturer’s procedures.
