[s-cars] Quiet Big Blacks

[Neil Swanson]

Hey guys,

My BB's are dead quiet no matter what temp.  I've had
these 993 brakes on my 91 200 and swapped them struts
and all into my S4.

No plated rotors, just stock 993 rotors and stock
Porsche Textar pads with factory stick on silencers. I
think I have over 30k miles on the brakes between teh
2 cars.  Same set of Textars.

On the track in the 200 I used Pagid orange pads.
Squealed briefly when cold or most of the time in the
wet at WG as they didn't get hot enough.  Oh and they
were noisey going to dinner up there.  I haven't
tracked the S4 yet but I will put the Pagids in when I
do.

The street Textars aren't very dusty, less then stock
G60  brakes with stock pads.  They cost a little more
list price than Mintex Reds.  No reason not to get
another set when they wear out.

Neil
