I have a tweaked 996 with 'standard' black brakes. These don't seem to be up to the job to me. Am I really going that much faster than my M3? I don't have soft or long pedal just the retardation seems too little when I'm having a play eg from flat in 5th down to 2nd. Does anyone have any views on:
a) suitable pads to improve bite - they must work from cold as I use it frequently. I have experience of EBC on other cars but not a 996? Pagid? Hawk?
b) suitable caliper/disc upgrades from 'standard' eg GT3/C4/TT 'red' ones? I'm told it is not a straight swap as the 4WD hubs are different. Help!
Also, is the point where the ABS cuts in adjustable?
Many thanks
