It seems like I missed the part#s...

yeah not good, I tracked my RS with PCCB’s at Road Atlanta and had no dust. Porsche wanted to sell the upgrade and there should have been a disclaimer with the new brakes.

Steels may actually generate less dust in 100 miles.

BUMP. Thanks @sgroer !

Anyone with thoughts of 991.2 OEM vs. Pagid RSC1 for PCCB's used on the street, with some track use? My dealer is willing to install prior to me picking up the car. I might just DIY, but don't have my center lock tool setup figured out yet, nor do I have the time right now.

You really can't go wrong with either it seems. They are roughly the same price - The pads that came on the 991's were great pads, wonderful on the street and highly capable on the track. I would go that route... as I already did.

sparkhill

Thanks, 991 OEM is certainly the easiest. Dealer can get those quickly and install before I pick the car up. Did you flush the factory brake fluid when you swapped pads, or does it also hold up pretty well?

unless you are a track hero, you’ll be fine. Always something you can do down the road but it’s very sufficient for the occasional track day and lots of aggressive street driving.

Perhaps what you are describing a "judder" is what I technically call the "crunchies." It's a feeling I get at times before ABS kicks in where the pads seems to loose full grip with the rotors as you apply more pressure, where the pedal feels "crunchy." I typically only get that in my GT4 at very high speeds and apply max brake heading into a hairpin.

Well, this morning, I was doing one of the things I enjoy: late braking into the underpass of a freeway (MoPac) and trail braking into it. Well, guess, what, I got the "crunchies" braking from about 40 mph to about 15. With my GT4, I never experienced this issue unless I was super late and hard on the brakes at a much higher speed.

I ordered my replacement pads yesterday.

No Way I'm tracking this car with these pads.

A brand new Lambo was totaled (I believe) at COTA last month due to brake failure. Can't believe Porsche doesn't have a massive disclaimer on these brakes.

This is not good

Dr. G

Not good at all. I'm seriously thinking of changing my spec to steels at this point before my build locks.

3-Pedals

Steels have the same problem (judder).

Dr. G

I may have to Fred Flintstone it.

Disappointing but switching to 991 pads is easy enough I guess. Thanks for digging into it, sgroer!

ENCT

Does Porsche have the same pads on all the CCB's, same on GT3, TurboS, GTS?

raymort

FYI, PFC just informed me that they have (or soon will have) a replacement pad for PCCBs (and I assume for steels).
