Just noticed this. That was my initial plan when I found out Porsche was going to possibly have them removed. Luckily I was able to keep PCCB on my build.

Buddy with a PTS PCCB order is in same situation - no request to change, no slippage of timeline.

My build locked last week with PCCBs and I was not informed of any changes. One thing is for sure, I won't take the car without them.

My PTS Touring build locked on 2/14 and I haven’t been informed that there would be any issues with PCCBs as of yet.

Default Yes, the pads suck

I have to double down on this. Have been keeping my opinion to myself until now, but the new pads on my 1/22 delivery are definitely bedded by now and my 991 PCCBs obviously outperform the new bigger, biggest PPCB brakes on this GT3. I would say they are comparable to iron rotors but they just don't have the bite I've gotten used to. Good brakes, no question, and good modulation, but these were supposed to be the bees knees. Not as much dust as irons, but dust is there where it is non existent on the 991. So far my only real disappointment but I'd probably still spec them going forward. The car is just so light on its feet!

The OEM PCCB pads suck…change them out and you will be happy.

I have 2,000 miles on my 22 turbo s now and those pccb are fantastic- granted I’m on winters now which Can’t contain the power of a turbo s without breaking loose so I haven’t pushed to the extreme or tracked but no dust no squeak and reasonably spirited driving

Different manufacturer and material composition?

Same - no rusting, no dusting, perfect grip.

Will Porsche even ship cars to Russia at this stage? I think that is a more interesting question than whether PCCB's will delay the car or not. https://www.volkswagen-newsroom.com/...ds-export-7771

I'd suggest that you ask your lunatic president to stop his crimes against Ukraine so that you can get your car.

raymort,

From what I have read on the PCCB new brake pads Porsche has changed them, correct ???
Is that why you say the New OEM PCCB brake pads suck ???

Versus the older OEM PCCB brake pads that there were no-complaints about.

Totally different caliper and pads from Turbo to GT3.
