Default RS29 on PCCB

I just replaced the stock pad to RS29 pagid yellow on my 3.8 GT3's PCCB, I would like to get some comments and experience on this combination. I did a search and unable to find any related topic around this combo. My main concern is the RS29 could be too aggressive for PCCB.

I think you're playing with fire. The greens work perfectly and they're intended for the purpose. I don't know about the yellows. There's threads here with part numbers from PMNA.

Yes, I also notice the abrupt initial bite during braking, as a result, I lost the ability to modulate different degree of brake force. That's very important for tight twsity track where you need slight braking force for the purpose of weight trasfer to induce some slight oversteer.

To my knowledge, Pagid yellows are not PCCB compatible.

Thanks, interestingly, some local guys that are running with this combo for a while and never encountered any issues.

ran greens on 996GT3 and 997GT3 and they are great pads. Why not just use Porsche motor-sport pads made by Pagid for Porsche's PCCB? You will just be adding another variable to the PCCB survivability on the track.
