Just to add to this message... besides Brembo and stock, EBC and KVR also have rotors for the Viggen. KVR also has a set of 2 piece rotors that are lighter and seem to last longer than the stock pieces. They are also slotted and vaned correctly, that is left and right side.
I have the rear 300mm vented rotor kit from GS but have not had a chance to install it yet (this weekend I hope).
The stock pads are very aggressive and they tend to eat rotors but work well. I went with the PBR ultimate ceramic, much less dust, better stopping etc. But I have a pair of Hawks for the front now and will install them this weekend as well.
I have been looking around for better front calipers, although the stock ones seem adequate. Unfortunately the good aftermarket kits are expensive ~$3K and usually require 18" wheels. Has anyone tried the Saab Savior kit and is it an improvement on the Viggen?
