EBC RP-X is the ultra-high-performance track and race pad from EBC Brakes Racing, and this front set suits the BMW 5 Series (E34) and 7 Series (E32), with the full application list below. It runs a stable 0.55 friction level with a stronger initial bite than RP-1, reaching full brake effect from cold with less pedal effort, and EBC rates it from ambient to 750°C. EBC suggests it for under-servoed cars and dedicated track cars running aftermarket master cylinders and brake bias adjustment, with excellent pad life and moderate disc life. RP-X is made at EBC's Bristol, UK factory and is intended for track use only.

- Full brake effect from cold with no warm-up needed
