Brakes for a 2004 Cayenne Turbo with 45K miles.
Hi All,

I'm looking for suggestions for where to buy parts for this brake job. I've looked a Pelican Parts and Tirerack already. Any other suggestions on specific parts brands and good prices?

Thank you!!

I just ordered mine from ECS Tuning. They have a front/rear kit with everything for only $332.

Hey John, any idea if ECS has this package with slotted rotors?

Thanks

( I guess I could just ask them myself)

Another option is Adams Rotors. He offers aftermarket option, Centric Ritors & Stoptech pads.

If you want OEM Suncoast is good to work with. My past orders from them have shipped same day!

All are good places but stay away from ECS's kit that has the EBC Red pads if you drive aggressively or Tow. The Reds are not a high temp pad and will coat your rotors with material under heat and it will feel like warped rotors. It's a well known issue with the Reds. Now the EBC Yellows are a great pad, EBC even calls them their track pad and/or SUV pad and I've had good experience with them and they're only about $10 more per axle than the Reds.

For 2015, we took your advice and went ahead and swapped out the Reds in those kits for Yellows. We agree that they will be better-suited to a performance SUV.

Hi ECS, thanks for that update. Which kit specifically includes the Red/Yellow EBC pads? Im looking for a front brake kit for my 2004 Cayenne Turbo. Thanks

The YellowStuff pads are only in the performance brake kits for the Turbo S. The 955 Turbo (non-S) performance kits that we offer use Hawk HPS pads, which are a fantastic high-performance pad for street use. Hawk simply does not offer them in the Turbo S sizes.
