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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Alright guys, its that time of year when the snow will go away soon, the car will come out of the garage, and you will want to drive fast on the track. When was the last time you replaced your pads!!!!!!!!!!! I have brought out some alternatives for you guys to get hooked up on some braking components including pads, lines, rotors, and full brake kits. I have done a bit of racing with my C2 and here is what I know will improve your stopping performance over stock on the street or track. If you have any questions about the parts, PM me, Email me, or Post here - Hawk HPS Performance Street Pads. - We have front and rear available PM me or email me for pricing. Hawk HT-14 Race Pads - Front and Rear available. PM me or email me for pricing. Very high torque with aggressive initial bite. Excellent modulation and release characteristics. Brake pads designed for cars with extremely high deceleration rates and down force. We also carry other pads from OEM Porsche to Pagid compounds so contact me for pricing. Agency Power Steel Braided Brakelines - Improve pedal response, better braking, longer lasting, can hold up to temperature. Lines are Steel braided with a teflon lining. Smoked covering over line give it a better look and prevents any wear and tear. Ends are CNC machined fittings to fit flawlessly with Porsche calipers. Front and rear lines available. PM me or email me for pricing. Motul RBF600 Synthetic DOT3 Brake Fluid - Extreme thermal resistance and stability. The elevated boiling point of RBF 600 FACTORY LINE (312�c / 593�F) enables effective braking even under the extreme conditions of competition. Very efficient in the rain: the very high wet boiling point (216�c / 420�F), is superior to conventional brake fluids and provides a particularly efficient braking system in rain and minimizes the risk of vapor lock. PM me or email me for special deals on quantity. DONT RACE your car on stock fluid! StopTech OEM Replacement or Slotted Rotors - Front and rear replacement rotors. If you have beat your rotors up and have hot spots, grooves, or its time to replace them, then go with these StopTech Plain or Slotted rotors. The Slotted rotors will give the best performance for street and track. Material is of OEM and better quality. Will work great with OEM to race pads. Fits with factory calipers. I can sell front or rear or all 4. Sorry drilled is not an option. PM me or email me for pricing. StopTech Big Brake Kits - Vivid Racing has been using StopTech on its street and race cars for almost 5 years now. Our history along with StopTechs winning race history proves their product. I have personally used their kits on my 996, M3, RX8, EVO, STI, and more. We have StopTechs 4 wheel and 2 wheel brake kit available. All brake kits come with calipers, 2 piece rotors, Axxis Ultimate Brake Pads, Steel Braided Brake Lines, and instructions. The front kit uses a 355x32mm floating rotor and the rear kit uses a 332x32mm floating rotor. Both are 4 piston calipers. We have them available with drilled or slotted rotors. Calipers are available in blue, red, black, silver, or yellow. Here is a link to the StopTech Porsche kits on our site - http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/a...s=stoptech+996 Here is a link to a install I did on my own 996 - http://vrsm.vividracing.com/index.ph...=Project%20996 PM me or email me for SMOKIN prices on these brake kits. We also sell BREMBO and Rotora. Let me know if you have any technical or pricing questions... Thanks Dan [phone removed] x222 [email removed]

POST 3Original post

Why do we have to PM you for prices? Why cant you post these 'smokin' prices for brake kits nd such?

POST 4Original post

Actually, I really want to find out more on these Performance Friction 2-piece floating rotors: http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?fo...action=product Direct fit for 911 base and Boxster S. Anyone use them or can find the weights? Supposed to be silent on the street as well. Group buy?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Chris because we can only advertised list prices. We are offering DISCOUNTED prices. so PM me if you are interested in what products. I will get you the info on the PF rotors.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

arenared - got you price on those rotors. $385 per rotor.

POST 9Original post

dan- does PF make front and rear 2pc rotors for stock rotor replacement? I just see the front? Are front and rear the same price? Also does Stoptech sell their 2 pc rotors w/hat seperatley? PM me a price if you can't post. I decided to stick with stock calipers for now. However I would like to get 2pc rotors.

POST 10Original post

hey can you send me a PM with the price for front Hawk HPS Performance Street Pads for a 99 C2?

POST 11Original post

PF does not make the rear. In order to retain the parking brake, you need steel drums back there, so the weight advantage is not much with aftermarket. Also, the fronts take significantly more abuse. Dan, At $385, I'm not too jazzed as the HRP World link in my post has them for $308 ea, and I've seen them for $600/pair. They are $387 direct from PF. Maybe it takes a group buy to get the price down. If not, I'll wait for mine to wear out first. Thanks for the research.

POST 12Original post

Stoptech sells rear 2PC rotors and I was told you keep the parking break
