2001 996 Turbo - Brembo GT 355mm Replacement Pads

[killerbee]

I am trying to identify my source options for replacement pads for my 2001 fitted with a Brembo GT 355mm kit (PN 1M2.8005A1, 6 piston front and 4 piston rear). Using the PN isnt really generating any solid hits and I was hoping to get some guidance as to what manufacturer makes replacement pads for these units.

 

Thank you

The part number you provided is for your front kit only. It appears to be black painted calipers with slotted discs. The important part of the part number is the "1M2", which means your front calipers are Brembo's "Family M" calipers.  The 355mm "M" calipers use Brembo's XA571M4 pads in the HP1000 friction compound.  Here's a link to one supplier:

The rear calipers for the Porsche Turbo rear application with 345mm discs are either Family C or Family P calipers, part nos. 2C2.8007A or 2P2.8001A, with both being shown as rear applications for the 996 Turbo.  You will need to determine which rear calipers are installed on your car since the C and P calipers each use different pads.  Assuming your car does have the 345mm rear discs, here are links to suppliers of the required pads:

 

Family "C" Rear Pads (345mm disc)

 

Family "P" Rear Pads (345mm disc)

 

With the pads numbers, you may be able to cross reference the part numbers to other brake pad manufacturers' part numbers.
