I want to get Pagid yellow pads for my 997.2 C2S. My plan is to swap the street pads for the pagids myself before going to the track for those special weekends (5-6 times a year).

I read quite a few DIY's and I am generally quite handy but was wondering:

(a) is this something doable or just a stupid amount of work? I heard C2S pads were easier to swap, is that right? easier than what?

(b) what should I do with dampers? just get a second set to put on the track pads or keep swapping them with the pads? Or not worry about dampers at all since this is a track application?

(c) are the pad sensors that fragile?

Should I just live with OEM pads? Or install the yellows and live with them, noise and all?

Thanks,

T.

 

If you can live with the Pagids for everyday use do it, everytime you take things aparts you increase the chances of making a mistake and it can be very costly when brakes are concerned. You may want to check on a middle of the road pad compound that will preform well on the track and still be usable for street use. Most race intended pads don't work very well until they have heat in them and thats not so easy to accomplish in regular street driving. They will probably wear out faster when not operating at the correct temperature.
