Hey guys

I run 997T brakes all around on my 996T. Basically a good bolt on upgrade.

Need new front Brakes. Any recommendations? I do 99% street driving.

 

OEM or the white box OEM pads i think the brand is Textar? double check me thats from memory

 

The 997 TT brakes are exceptional up to the point of competitive racing. Stick with OEM, imo, although I had to search around the country to find a set when I replaced mine a few weeks ago. Suncoast, board sponsor, came through.

 

Can't agree more. I'm no track hound but they did exceeded my expectations at the one track event I did.

What you pay for with porsche is severe overenginering. Interior, body, drivetrain. Built like a tank (or maybe racecar? )

 

Good thread...I'm also interested in what street pad to get downt he road, for a car that does mainly street duty but will see track time when I am instructing at PCA events.

 

Pagid Yellows are my go-to for great high-speed performance while still being acceptable for street use. A little noisy, but a fantastic pad.

I'm looking for some new pads also on my 997 T brakes. I have OEM right now with slotted rotors and they dust quite a bit. I would like something that keeps the dust low, has low noise, and will be used mainly in the street with maybe 2 or three DE events per year. I heard pretty good things about EBC redstuff. Anyone have experience with these? I would like to retain OEM performance at the very least
