Suggestion · Original poster

I think I have seen that these ebay kits are pretty good for standard driving (non-track use), and produce much less brake dust than stock.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I think I have seen that these ebay kits are pretty good for standard driving (non-track use), and produce much less brake dust than stock. Now that I have convinced shehadehd to buy the kit/its waiting for me to put on his car, is it actually any good?

POST 2Original post

In the process of installing a kit now. Everything seems hunky-dory. 272$ CDN. Delivered tax customs included. Time will tell if they are any good.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Cool, I am verrrry interested in brake dust reduction. And the superficial look of holes and slots

POST 4Original post

I have some ebay drilled rotors and ceramic pads. The brake dust is almost zero and the brakes work great. I'm sure you will be happy with them.

POST 5Original post

Can someone link to the kit you guys are talking about?

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Not necessarily this exact kit, but an example: Porsche Boxster 97 04 Brake Rotors Ceramic Pads Front Rear | eBay

POST 8Original post

Not for S models though, interesting?

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 458376

There are kits for boxster S, but this is not one of them. The S model has slightly larger rotors.

POST 11Original post

Brake Rotors Front Rear Kit Eline "Cross Drilled" Ceramic Pads RC40001 | eBay I went with this set. I payed a little less buying the front and rear separately. Like I said the dust is near zero. I can stop as well or better than with stock rotors and textar pads. They are zinc coated and after four months still look like new. Time will tell how long they last. But for the cost i'd be willing to replace every few years. The look great on the car as well.

POST 12Original post

I put these on the other day, but I bought some titanium pads (Disc Italia Titanium Kevlar) for $150ish. They look good and seem to work well. Very low dust. I haven't even had a chance to bed them yet, but for the price I paid for the rotors, if they screw up, I'm not out too much.

POST 13Original post

I think we should make a buyers guide for this kind of stuff, I just did my brakes and wish I would have known about these kits. I think Ill get started on a guide; brake kits, motor mounts, suspension, UDP, rear speaker kits, headlight mods, custom windscreen ...lots of stuff

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

If you start a global excel or something, I vow to at least update it for the next few months as I buy/find new parts. Can we even store a universal file for community updates anywhere?

POST 16 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Agreed. However, we need a sticky with a global data sheet any new or old forum member can hit

POST 18Original post

So far so good, better bite than stock. Quieter than what was on it before,( stock disks, brembo oe pads on front, Textar back).

POST 19Original post

I put these on my 99 over a year ago and they have performed great. No brake dust. just road dust.

POST 20Original post

when i bought my boxster i replaced the rotors, pads and sensors. bought off ebay for $225 they were ceramic pads and worked out great
