Been running powerstop for years on my daily no issues and if anything pads last alot longer
For brakes though, I've used Powerstop Z17 and they're solid parts.
I've used Powerstop on various other vehicles and have been pretty happy with them. I wouldn't recommend using them on something like an RS, but I'd put them on another daily driver without hesitation.
I put the pads/rotors on the front and just the pads on the rear of my 1st gen, and they are great. I would recommend them and say they're not overkill. Plenty of info online about the oem setup leaving something to be desired. I don't have to apply half the pressure I used to in order to get the same stopping power.
I run Z36s on my 2001. They are fantastic, and have served me well towing and off roading. You probably don't *need* drilled and slotted rotors, but if you're doing it yourself you're already saving money. It's an upgrade from stock for sure.
Update: I bought the Powerstop z26’s (I thought I bought the z23’s) but they so far work great!
I’ve used the powers too kits with success in the past but now I just run duralast gold ceramic pads and gold rotors. Haven’t have any issues towing with them in 3 years
I got a kit from Powerstop with drilled/ slotted rotors and ceramic pads. Huge boost in braking power.
I am using POWERSTOP brake pads and drilled and slotted rotors. They work just fine!
I have Ferodo DS2500 pads on my 987 Cayman. They are a good pad for street/track duty and it seems they come recommended on the forums. Just remember a dual purpose pads are okay for street and track, but not great in either.
