Update to this thread - I installed these in my 997.1 Turbo. Resurfaced rotors at the same time. Definitely have lower initial bite and require more pressure than OEM or the Pagid RSL1 I was running before, especially when cold.

Part numbers for a Turbo:
For a 997 Turbo:
Fronts: HB483Z.635
Rears: HB651Z.624

 

OK, finally have an update. For a 2009 base model, I installed the HB719Z.668 pads in the front and they are correct for the 997.2 base models. I have driven 500 miles on the pads and no untoward behaviors. The pads are slightly grabby on release, but nothing bad at all. The dust is mostly gone. Hawk doesnt make ceramic pads for the rears of our cars, but I found a little tidbit to save us all money for the rears. If you order the Centric 100.13000 pad, they are textar OEM pads for a fraction of the price.

Thanks

Help! After receiving two wrong sets of front and rear Hawk HPS brake pads from TireRack, I cant seem to get correct part numbers. Car is 2009 997.2 base coupe. Closed caliper. If anyone has info numbers or pictures , it would be greatly appreciated!

 

Need help with correct part numbers for Hawk HPS brake pads for 2009 997.2 base c2. I've gotten 2 wrong sets from tirerack and getting frustrated trying to find correct info for closed caliper pads. Have car apart so looking for solution. Thanks Rennlisters!!

 

The way hawk part numbers work, the letter in the part number is the compound. So HB719 is the front profile you want to look for.

Anyways, here is the front:

I don't see anything for the rears right now.

Thanks

Thanks Rob, at least that's a start. Do you think I should look for another solution for the rears or different brand all together? Looking to do a few track days but mostly weekend street performance. Thnx !,

 

I have been looking for track pads for our cars, and they seem to be few and far between. There are front and rear offerings from PFC and Pagid, and front pads from Hawk. I dont have experience with PFC pads on the Porsche, and dont know how much you care about brake dust and all of that, but I used to dual duty my BMW on PFC 08s without much of an issue (and I was also able to use them in racing as well once the car was a dedicated track car).

Thanks
Rob

 

Thanks for direction. I called Tire Rack with no luck, they recommended calling Hawk which I will do on Monday. I gave them the Hawk numder you referenced and it didn't come up. Dealer has Oem available but I would like to upgrade if possible. Maybe I should upgrade to S calipers and be done with it.

 

I have had an issue with any supplier which uses the official hawk catalog, as you end up being sent pads for an S model car. I looked at upgrading to S calipers as well, but I think I will end up running the PFC pads front/rear if I ever decide to run the 997 on track. SunCoast parts seem to have the correct part numbers for the PFC 08s if you want to go that route. I also got the brake caliper studs so changing pads isnt too much of a hassle. Its a terrible design on the base model cars. I ended up taking my stock pad wear sensors and joining the two wires together to ease pad changeover as well.

Is the same on the Turbo cars (on the rear calipers at least). Will swap to studs on the next pad change.

Had the same issue sourcing Hawk pads for my car - had to get the part numbers from Hawk via email as their site was out of date, and the supplier had to be talked into ordering as they didn’t have them in their Hawk catalog.

 

I have a set of 997.2 S pads for sale, BNIB. if anyone is looking for a set, let me know.





$200 Shipped plus PP fees.

 

Thnx for the help. I do have access to a professional parts person who offered to help track down part numbers. I will post them as soon as I get them. Hopefully Monday. Seems odd as there many 997.2 c2 2009-2012 30-40k cars that this applys.
