The street pads for the PCCB are a special compound and only sold
through Porsche channels. Although they are sometimes yellow as our
racing pads they are NOT identical. I don't know the last spec of the
ceramic development, I think the compound is P40-2 or P40-3, something
like that.
For racing the Pagid P50 (green) compound can be used. You can get it
from Porsche Motorsport NA.

Have scrapped the ceramics on my 03 GT2, have replaced with Performance Friction v2 front, and Alcons rear.. there was no need to shim the rear hat.
Have been running R29s, but after 3 trackdays in 2 weeks (Snetterton, Nordschleife and Silverstone GP) front pads are shot, and will be switching to the PFC pad.
Regarding the increase in unsprung weight, have not noticed a lot of difference.. marginal less feedback, but have ditched standard steering wheel (heavy) and fitted cup item for more feel.
Friend has a 996RS with ceramics (he races britcar) and said he did notice big difference changing from ceramics to steels.
