I had AD09’s on my GT4 when I had it and loved them. Not as much ultimate grip as some tires named in here but grip was great and you just couldn’t kill them, you could hammer them for 30 minute sessions and they wouldn’t fade, lasted a ton of track days
Porsche parts reviews
Just finished porsche junkyard cayeene Brembo 18z from a junk yard. Super cheap score. Fronts came out great but my audi wheels wont fit. The spokes hit the caliper. So i ordered 10mm spacers and longer lugs.
I’ve used carbotech XP10 for years because it’s the only pad that has never had any of these kinds of problems. Also also swapped between 1521 and XP10 seamlessly. The only time I had a problem like this was when I used some very cheap rotors that couldn’t handle the track abuse, you could actually see the rotor surface getting pitted. Yours look fine by comparison.
I had to replace one of the PDLS+ headlights and it was $3,600. So that's an expensive fix but at least they didn't tear up the rest of the car.
I did my AOS and water pump/thermostat, coolant change, trans fluid change, spark plugs and coils ( one failed while driving, engine ran horrible , but I was real close to home).
I recently changed all the spark plugs and coils.
Just had mine done recently on a 2014 CS MT, drive belt was the only 60k specific item, and honestly the old belt they pulled out looked almost new
The 06 cayman is unique to the 987s because Porsche revised the service interval for oil changes on the 07 and 08 cars. IIRC the 06 had a recommended oil change interval or 20k miles. As a result they’re a little more prone to IMS and bore scoring issues than the later cars.
I purchased a Duralast 115A Alternator 14921 (remanufactured) which, once we moved the pulley and fan from old to new, it mounted up without a hitch. Once the battery was charged I connected everything up and she started right up. However, the voltmeter was hanging around 12V so we put a multimeter on the battery and only saw 12V+/-.
I particularly hate the Porsche headlights with the 4 dots of light, they create a weird afterimage for several minutes.
