[s-cars] Brake Upgrade Help Needed. P/n's P/n's P/n's...

[bob.rossato at att.net]

That's for the large square pads. The part numbers Gary and I listed are for
the individual circular pads.  That seems to be what they supply now.  At
least that's what Crescent City Porsche sold me, and that's the ones I've
seen others get with their Big Red kits from ECS.  I don't know which version
is better.  I've only seen the square ones in some photos on line and assumed
they were superceded by the individual circular ones, though I may be wrong.
