I have been running Pagid RS29s up front, and RS14s in the rear - ever since I bought the car in 2006. That was the preference of choice on this board until the '08 time frame, at which point many went over the PFCs.
I like the modulation with the Castrol SRF, so no need to change a good thing!

My friend and i have the same car, he runs Pagid I run PFC. Have driving both cars back to back on same track, Pagids felt fine but PFC felt better to me and the PFC pads lasts way longer. PFC pads feel great almost all the way to the mental backing, meaning I can run them low and for me that is more value in PFC.

PF08 all round, tried 08 up front and rs29 on rears but so glad I made the swap to 08 on the rear also.

Hi Craig,
I've been running the RS29/RS14 combo that I got from you last year.
Absolutely brilliant combination. Don't know how anyone would need anything different.
They do produce dust, but wear fantastically well.
Why are so many people running and preferring the PFC08 these days? Just a fashion thing?

PFC rotors & pads. PFC 01 & PFC 08... No bedding... I use the Brembo LCF600 fluid which has as high a wet boiling point as I have found - except for the Ca$trol...

PF 08 at all 4. Initial bite takes a bit of getting used to when coming from the Pagid 29, but once you do, it's very comforting.
Don't know whether it's true or not that the PF don't need bedding and that they are good to the last drop v the Pagids, but I use them that way, and am very happy about it.
Bedding pads on the road is asking for trouble.
