On "paper" it would appear then that 600 would be better than the 660. I know for a fact that is not true.

I think it's touch to evaluate these based on the packaging and better to go with what works best for you and your application.

Definitely can't go wrong with SRF though. People that use it really like it.

What can I say besides I'm Parsimonious, will give you time to look up the meaning. Besides it's only 10 days on a set of pads, see it pays to be slow.

Does anyone have part #s for the Cayenne rotors?? Those sound like just what I need.

No part number necessary.

you need 2005 cayenne S rotors in 350mm. only works on the fronts.

google that and you'll see a million of them. get something slotted.

That is a smoking deal on the rears. Any chance RL's could get that same pricing? I get a deal on rears at Suncoast being a local, and it's no where near your pricing.
DP95. Yup it was a great deal, however like the previous post giving the cudos to Harry Dog Grrrage, they would sell me the rears for $210.00! Better than my brothers deal, however with shipping it still made sense to go with family
Check out Harry Dog Grrrage, they were great to deal with!

I ran the 3 day event at COTA with the Motul 600 and didn't experience any fade. The weather was cool, so maybe it won't hold up at a summer event but it worked fine for me this weekend. I did get the experience the wonderful ice mode though a few times.

I may just go to SRF the next time I bleed them and not have to worry about it.

No way - I won every DE heat, so I must have been driving hard.

In seriousness, the Cayenne S front rotors / OEM rear rotors plus PFC08 pads worked great, even with the 'terrible' Motul 600. Thanks again for the tip on the front rotors. The PFC's seem to be squealing less now as well, so hopefully they'll be tolerable enough to leave on for street driving.

You haven't run into Eddie yet if you are winning your DE. Eddie wins all the DE's

I've been running the cayenne 08 combo for a long time now. Wear great and work very well. Cheap too. Well, except for the pads... I hate to say it but they are worth every penny.

Mine don't squeal at all on the street once they are bedded in. They do squeal a bit on the track but who cares right?

Please get rid of that 600 though. It will ruin a DE for you sooner than later. It will be no fun doing a full flush at the track.
