That would be great if you can let me know how much is on them?
I have these very expensive green pads that were from Porsche motor sports .. they are like $450 + for the 2 axles but they really do a number on the rotors and brake dust ...
Thanks Scott

The green pads are vintage pagid, not a currently available compound. These were track/race pads used on the Cups.

The original stock OE pads for the turbo S were made by Textar. Not sure if that is who is still making/supplying them for porsche these days.

Sorry about the crappy picture, I forgot to change the setting on my phone. The thinnest was just over 9mm, the thickest was just over 10mm, the other two were around 9.4mm and 9.6mm. I don't know the brand, but they were quiet when on my car. I only took them off because I put some PBR Ultimates on there when I replaced the disks, did the wheel bearings and replaced the brake lines.

I have a matching rear pair if you'd like to have the same thing all around.

Yep that's the pads ..They are the best pads I have ever used.. They are just a bit too harsh for the rotors (for street use)
What did you think of the pads Jim ?
Thanks Guys
Best
