Title: Which brake pads to use with NQSBBK front and rear setup?
Post by: Christiank on June 09, 2017, 11:40:03 am

Hey.
Need some help with the best match on brake pads to suit my needs.

The car will never see track use. Only highway driving and normal city runs.

I will have the NQSBBK setup front and rear and want the best pads for it. Anyone got some suggestions on which to go with?

I got some Ferodo DS2500 from Addiction Motorsport. They have a modified Ferodo DS2500 pad from the Boster S caliper that fits the NQSBBK caliper and sweeps the entire disc. I found them on their eBay store and emailed Thomas there and asked if they could do a matching pad for the rear as they weren't advertised. He did and sorted me out a good deal.
Do make sure you have/get the Porsche anti squeal shims too from somewhere.
