As Scott said, we did his brakes today to put his street pads back on. I'm here to tell you, there is no way Fred is a millionaire in the making from these products. Sounds like he was an enthusiast that used his own frustration that we all feel to make a job easier and passed along the idea to use for a minimal reap on his time. If we calculated the time he spent on R&D as well as his cost to make them and time invested, there is no gain here. Thanks for making a great product Fred!

By the way, THANKS SCOTT for the brake tool gift! Very cool gesture

I gave my friend (that has everything) the buckle thingy for his car so he will not have to put the seat buckle around the back of the seat while on track. He was so thankful for the gift, acted like it was a million bucks.
Thanks Fred for great products.

Purchased the seat buckle thing. You can easily buy a factory type instert on ebay as others have mentioned. However, this item is pretty nifty, real small like a key chain, for easy storage in your car and the machining is very clean. Worked well for 2 track days. I leave mine in the passenger seatbelt side or the glove compartment. Convienent for about $24shipped.

A nice guy to deal with and promptly shipped the item. Holding out for the brake tool.

We have instituted a new policy -- free shipping for Rennlist members. the order form has a place for you to indicate your Rennlist id, and then no shipping fee is charged.

I never had trouble doing Porsche brake pad changes until I met that stupid semi-flat spring. I made a tool but will buy one of yours as it is better.

Hi all,

If you read the fine-print on the site, it says free shipping IN THE USA/CANADA to Rennlist people.

We've had European customers -- the shipping surcharge for Europe is only $10, so order away, fill out the form on the website TraqJunk.com, supply your full address on the form (you can put the country etc into the City field) and we'll add on the $10 shipping surcharge to the amount we charge your credit card.

Mainly look at the statements of the happy users of the products, and you'll see how they can help you.

Quick question:
Is this spring on all the sports cars or just the GT3's? If it does the Cayenne will the Panamera brakes be much different?
Also for anyone criticizing I see no need it in when a fellow rennlister creates a product that is very useful and extremely helpful while offering free shipping.
Support your fellow rennlister and make it easier on yourself also.

The Traqjunk Brake tool is for many models, not just GT3 -- in fact works on non-Porsches also. It is designed to work with certain Brembo brakes.

Look at the picture
to see if it will work on your car.

Thanks,
