Brake pads Textar or Hawk Performance
I use Hawk HP5 pads and love them. Feels like stock.
New brake pads and rotors, front and rear. Rebuilt brake calipers. Hawk and OEM parts.
rear disc axle with prop valve, new textar pads
I got Hawk HPS pads recently on my 987.2 Cayman and they definitely have less dust and equal or better braking power.
Also the Hawk 5.0 pads are GREAT.. squeak a bit, but they are a high torque ceramic pad which have great bite. They dust like crazy.
Bought Audi S3 caliper from a wreck yard on eBay. Also used Hawk 5.0 pads. Tremendous brake upgrade.
For me, these were the Hawk HPS 5.0 and G-Loc R12 pads.
This time, I had some Hawk 5.0 brake pads and Motul 600 brake fluid installed. The better pads, and especially the high-temp brake fluid have me peace-of-mind so I could focus on the business of driving and continuing to learn the track and the car. Made a HUGE difference.
They are absolutely not track pads. They fill this awkward in-between in which they have the coefficient of friction and modulation of good aggressive street pads but also dust and make tons of noise in street usage.
I have Hawk HPS 5.0 street pads on mine, and hate them. They're ass until you get some heat in them.
