Not a track car, just looking for something non-squeaky for a spirited daily driver.

Thanks-

 

Textar and Hawk are good pads. Suncoast Porsche Parts has Porsche OEM pads on sale; $150.56 front and $122.47 rear.

 

just get the OEM Pads from Porsche, they work the best

 

We offer a few replacement brake service kits, for more information Click Here.

Includes the following parts:

• Sebro coated front rotors
• Mintex front pads
• URO brake pad wear sensors
• ECS stainless steel rotor set screws
• AGS Syl-Glide Silicone Brake lubricant

 

Too Dusty & expensive!

I like the Akebono Ceramic pads

 

Ceramic pads will work and do create less dust, however you loose stopping power.

 

I have been using Hawk pads. Very happy with street and track performance

what he said, I been there done that... OEM Pads work the best or if you want slight upgrade and can deal with Noise then get Pagid Sport Pads

 

Do rotors get machined or are they replaced?

 

Replaced, they cannot be machined. They are designed to wear together but in some cases you can get 2 sets of pads before you have to replace, especially rears.

 

Note: most performance pads should be properly bedded to old rotors. Most dealers will simply install for you and then park car outside for you to collect later, skipping the bedding stage. You will not have full braking power until rotor and pad are mated with heat. Find your preferred clear/safe parking lot or deserted road and run up to 60 mph and run a series of increasingly forceful and repetitive braking cycles. Be especially careful if it's nighttime or if it is below freezing where you are when you do this and give yourself lots of space for brake fade when first starting out. Do 5-6 cycles and let things cool down. Don't over do it, or you can warp your rotors.

 

Hey FLA996TT, Thanks for the link to Suncoast Porsche for the brake pads! Best price online. Just ordered them when I saw this post. THanks again for the hookup..
Garrett..

 

We have had very good luck with Akebono Euro Ceramic pads. Very low dust, and stopping power is OEM equivalent or a bit better.

 

I agree they will need to be bedded in. Our writeup on bed-in can be found here.

 

I prefer Hawk HPS pads for steer cars. They are a little loud, but it's a good trade off for low dust and good stopping power.
