Am I on the right track w/these pads?

1+Turbo+Coupe&autoYear=1996&autoModClar=
For the rotors 314x30 (my understanding from the PO is that I have BIRA
system3)
Where can these be sourced in the US?
I've only been able to find:
http://www.autodonner.de/index.php/cPath/21_165_167
or
http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/products/product_info.mhtml?produ
ct=15298369
ECS seems to be out:

I did find these - but for the price of an OEM at $190 - might as well
order from overseas and get slotted, no?

I had no idea, these rotors were so difficult to source - I may just buy
crappy pads to buy time on the rotors (my pads are g-g-g-one)?
Will BIRA have these if I join their membership? Might give em a call
tomorrow...

If you have Big Reds, make sure you don't buy pads for a regular 993-
they will be too small. You want the pads for a '96-97 Porsche 911 turbo
(aka 993 turbo).

I am currently running Hawk HPS which seem fine, a bit squeaky on slow

I'm
not sure at the moment exactly what they are), but the point is there
are a
huge selection of pads besides the Porsche Textar.
