I did a search for anyone with the same question, but I got some new tires and the shop told me it's time for new brakes all around. I got quoted 60 a set for the front EBC, but he wasn't sure if I needed 1 set or 2. Anyone know? And I was quoted 35 for the rear. The prices sound about right. But I just need to know about the quantity. Thanks guys.

One set for front, one set for rear.

That's what I though since it's only 1 rotor on the front. So I didn't know what he was going for when I was trying to explain only one rotor and he said yes but you need 2 sets for the front. Yeah....

I thought I would only need one. But if I look at this fiche I looks like 2 sets.

Instead of one large pad on each side of the rotor, there are two smaller pads on each side thus the two sets.

the pictures in those ads are not specific to the application, they are stock photo's.

I had the same idea when I bought my pads.
I ordered two, this gave me a nice new set waiting for the next time. :-)

OK thanks everyone. I went ahead and told them to get 2 sets and if I didn't need both I would have an extra. Looks like I'll be using both sets. Haha. Can't wait to get her back today with the new Michelin pilot 2 and new brakes. I'm sure I could have done the brakes but they gave me a deal since they were already doing the tires.

EBC part# FA454/4HH is for the front and contains all 4 brake pads (2 pairs) to service the front caliper. I installed them on my 1125R earlier this year (along with a new EBC rotor) and they work great.
