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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys Sorry if this has been asked before but couldn't find any recent threads. I'm trying to find the best deal on discs and pads (front) for my 96T Looking to maybe order online (if I can find a cheaper deal) and get my indie to fit. I've been advised sebro are good to go for. Anyone have any pointers on deals for sebro disc/pad kits ? Also I've seen these kits on design911. Brembo and OEQ discs. Has anyone used these? Brembo https://www.design911.co.uk/fu/prod...Disc-Package-Porsche-996-C4S---996-Turbo_2_2/ OEQ https://www.design911.co.uk/fu/prod...Disc-Package-Porsche-996-C4S---996-Turbo_2_2/ I know CP4L is usually recommended but didn't know exactly which parts i'd need for the turbo and they don't sell the kits. If any one has this info it'd be greatly appreciated. Cheers in advance guys Adam :thumb:

POST 2Original post

Adam, Try Frazerparts, they tend to be well priced or RosePassion (you can order using the Porsche parts numbers from D911 site!). If you can get all the details might be worth it. Damping plates are 99635108901 I believe ECP or CP4L sensors are same I think across 996 (I stand to be corrected) Disks and Pads can get sets on Fleabay, or places like ECP/CP4L especially when they have deals on. I bought a full set for the 993 from CP4L when the deals were better. Did the same for the Range Rover and the SL, just having them in stock at home ready when required!!

POST 3Original post

Design 911, pretty good price wise in my history.

POST 4Original post

Just done a total for you on CP4L for a set of front Pagid disk, pads, shims and sensors and the total was £225.24 so cheaper than D911 even before they add the VAT! I think your car will have the 330mm disks but someone who knows the 996 better than me will confirm for sure.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks so much all for the responses Rob - thanks will check out FP! Angry - had a look on design911 and prices do look good for packages but not sure the brembo / oeq disks mentioned Thefinn - wow, thanks for working out for me. How are pagid for quality. I have heard of them but been advised sebro are the ones to go for. Also can anyone confirm on the 330mm thing?

POST 6Original post

Standard 996 turbo front brakes are 330mm. PCCB are 350mm Standard 997 turbo front brakes are 350mm PCCB 380mm Nothing at all wrong with pagid if you're after a 'standard' pad option. You don't need to go mad on price if you're just running standard brakes. :thumb: EDIT - said the word 'standard' 4 times in 4 sentences. Surely I must get a badge for that?

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Again many thanks - that wasn't a 'standard" answer :grin: :thumb: Most useful. Think the CP4L at pagid disks and pads ? Any real difference between pagid and sebro disks in quality ? Thefinn- any chance in posting the part numbers for all the bits you worked out on CP4L (discs, pads, shims and sensors) Thanks :thumb: So far found : Sensors : https://www.carparts4less.co.uk/cp4...81691173dc1e69f349559b15717bef7893e287&000369 Discs (sebro): https://www.carparts4less.co.uk/cp4...4d834d20759f12f1cdbc05aebfbf934ae81609&000027 Shims: Couldn't find ?? Pads: Quite a few to chose from and didn't know which are closest to OEM?

POST 8Original post

Design 911 tend to mark-up everything compared to other sellers - them and Porscheshop selling genuine Porsche parts with a huge markup usually. Have you actually got a quote from an OPC? Porsche Exeter is my favourite and if you mention you are a member of an owners forum or one of the clubs they will usually give you a good discount.

POST 9Original post

Adamw. That's a challenge you have set me there but I will have a go. BTW there is another thread running on the 997 forum and I think Phil tried the sebro disks and had them taken off the car within 2 days Pagid are good though and I have never heard a bad comment. I have them on my daily and had them on my 997 and they are spot on imho. I have also posted two differnt pads below just check the photos against the ones you have on your car as they will both fit but will need different types of the spring clips to hold them in. You can also use the chat function to double check with cp4l before you buy that the parts I have listed are the correct ones for your car. Pagid Brake Disc (Rear Left) Product Code: 104330738 Pagid Brake Disc (Front Right) Product Code: 104330728 Pagid Wear Sensor (For Cars Using Pin Type Wear Sensors) (Front or Rear) Product Code: 106330278 Pagid Brake Pad (Front)Product Code: 101330448 Pagid Brake Pad (For Cars With Pin Type Wear Sensors) (Front; Rear) Product Code: 101330488 H-Tech Dampening Disc/Plate (Dampening Disc 28mm For Brake Pad, Qty 4 Required) (Rear) Product Code: 101339030 H-Tech Dampening Disc/Plate (Dampening Plate For Brake Pad, Qty 4 Required) (Front) Product Code: 101339140

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Again, wow :grin: Thanks so much for yr help, most useful I'll check out all the parts and make sure they're right before ordering. Also I'll see if can locate Phil's thread on the 97 forum. Again - many thanks Wh1t3kn1ght - thanks too, think design 911 have been knocked out the running by CP4L :grin: :thumbs:
