Title: NQSBBK Pads & Shims Question
Post by: Kalpsn2000 on September 18, 2017, 04:41:21 pm
Hi everyone

It's time to change the pads on my NQSBBK so just wanted to double check the part numbers as its been 4 years since they were changed previously!

Last time I fitted Brembo pads. Is the correct part number P65007?

Are there any other recommended pads, although don't track it so won't need top end ones, also want to avoid ones that squeal.

The other thing I wanted to check is if the anti rattle shims are reusable or will I need new ones?

Thanks

'Winter is coming'

Please can anyone with the kit confirm. Ideally want to get these changed very soon.

Are these correct?

Are the shims reseuable?

Thanks

Not really as they won't re-stick to the new pad...

Ah ok cool. I didn't fit the pads last time round so didn't know they get stuck to the pads  :smiley:

If they're the ones I've got on my Porsche 911 turbo calipers these are the type you're after. There are two sizes for boxster and turbo calipers

Just need confirmation on the pads. They need to be for the Porsche Boxster non 'S' version right?
