Suggestion · Original poster
Advice sought on brake pads for road use but I want more bite when brakes are cold as the std Porsche pads are pretty poor in this respect and don't seem to be showing signs of wearing at all after 25,000 miles easy life.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Advice sought on brake pads for road use but I want more bite when brakes are cold as the std Porsche pads are pretty poor in this respect and don't seem to be showing signs of wearing at all after 25,000 miles easy life.

POST 2Original post

I found this too, I put new front discs and EBC ultimax2 pads on and was much improved. They are just road pads Most upgrade track pads have no better or worse cold bite, I never hammer the brakes or track so no need for that sort of pad

POST 3Original post

I fitted Pagid rs29s. The difference was astounding. Work from cold etc. They are track compatible and do tend to squeal some times and are very expensive, but believe me I lived with that :thumb:

POST 4Original post

I've heard plenty of people say rs29s are very good, but mostly from point of view of tracking the cars rather than daily drive sort of use. Circa £250 for a set of front pads is like you say expensive, do you really think cold bite is improved over OEM pads? Not sure if it's a fair comparison or not for the OP if you're coming from the bigger turbo anchors or is it the 993?

POST 5Original post

IME there are better road pads than RS29 RE good bite from cold. They are great on track and for spirited driving though. Try Pagid RS-5 (or equivalent) which has better cold bite and fine on track. Ferodo DS2500 are good but not tried them on a Porsche.
