Bought myself some new pads for the ride.

 

Performance friction, its what the porsche cup race cars are using.

 

Not cheap i can tell you that much :shock:

 

nice

 

whats the performance difference over standard?

This thread is crap without knowing how much they set you back :D

Well im not sure if they make them for the stock zed calipers, im using porsche brembos remember lol, but im sure they do an aplication. some info anyways,

 

97 Compound

A favorite of sportscar endurance and NASCAR racing since its debut, winning races in CART, ALMS, Grand Am, ASA, and Club Racing, 97 Compound has less initial bite and average torque than the 01 Compound. It has great modulation, a very flat torque curve, and enhanced release characteristics. With the lowest wear of any PFC Compound, 97 is considered Performance Friction's "Endurance Compound" and is highly recommended as a general-purpose pad for Club Racing and Track Day events.

-Very flat torque characteristics

-Extremely easy on discs

-Long wearing

 

But i do know you can buy and fit ds2500 and ds3000 ferodo's for your calipers which are one of the best.

£198 :shock:

£198 :shock:

 

Thats cheap. mine are £300 :cry:

fitted and road tested,, my god do they do the job well... only have to touch the brake pedal now.

 

car mad you paid 300 for front and back or just fronts?

what they like when cold, and do they take much to get up to temp ?

bloody hell they are good cold and hot, bedded in very quickly, tbh not sure if fully bedded but boy do they bite.

 

I doubt i have even had them anywhere near hot yet, done a couple 100-60 stops which felt like no effort at all lol

 

My friend who recommended them uses them on his race cars, he races porsches and comes 1st in his class alot of the time, really knows his stuff and these pads are evidence to that.

 

they are the 97 compound which are more street easy, good cold easy on disc and they last longer than other brands, (what ive read) there is another compound 01 which is more suited to race, my friend said he uses the 97 compound to race with because of the wear rates and disc wear. :bow:
