After only 3 track days my ebc brakes are completely gone. After doing some research I've decided to order Carbotech Panther Plus pads in front and Brembo OEM rotors in front as well.

First of all ; The stock US brakes are the same as the Euro one's, right?

After searching I see that a lot of people are happy with the Panther Plus pads for combined street and track use, but i couldn't really find info about how fast they wear. How long can I expect the pads to last with 4-5 15 minutes sessions in 4-5 track days a year??

And are the Brembo OEM rotors precisely the same as the stock one's?

yes they are direct replacement but better quailty then stock.

 

US brakes are 282mm front and 262mm rear!? Same as Euro, right?

 

I don't know about the euro one but the OZ one is 282x21 front and 260x9 rear

 

yeah, the US brakes are the same. Where do you get the Brembo rotors? And how much are they?

I'm using stock rotors with Ferodo DS2500 pads. They are very good and they last a very long time IMO, even with a lot of track days....

I plan to get them from http://www.carbotecheng.com together with the cryogenic treatment (as long as the price is reasonable).

You can also get them from http://www.buybrakes.com

Do they ship them to Europe? How much is shipping then? Those are heavy MF'ers...
