Brake pads Bendix or OEM Porsche

I’ve been using Bendix metal king for my car, it outperforms stock pads from Toyota by a lot. For context, I’m from Sabah; under normal driving conditions and without another driver in front basically keeping their foot on the brake pedal. Our steepest mountainous road is Kimanis, gradients ranging from 10% to 25%; it handled the descend perfectly without fading as compared to stock pads. Traversing to-and-fro Kundasang was also a breeze, brakes would typically fade half-way down the mountain with minor traffic ahead. I’m looking to switch to Bendix Ultimate come time to change my brake pads. Though I have to agree with the brake dust, but if you wash your car once a week then it shouldn’t be that awful.

I had a 996.2 and an early 2.5L 986 and I loved the Boxster more. One of the best cars I've owned. I drove it back and forth from NC to WI several times. I am 6'5" and had luggage room to spare. It made better sounds than the 996. It was not very fast. It was pretty easy to work on and every single DIY job is well documented online. It was really comfortable. The handling is awesome, the brakes are awesome. Even the base ones.

I own a 1999 996 C2. I have had the car for over 10 years. I bought it with 70k miles, and it now has 169,000 miles.

It is in the garage now waiting for front brakes. Have the parts, just got busy.

I'm not sure if it counts, but I put porsche brakes on the front and TTRS brakes on the rear.

I also supplied new rotors, pads, and all fluids and pads. My bill was $650 at a Porsche specific independent shop.

Some DBA T2 slotted rotors and Bendix heavy duty or any other quality brand pad will be good.

Repco, whatever model serial for rotors and Bendix pads, then find someone to do it for you.

Been using Bendix metal king for my cars. Yes the brake dust sucks, but the braking fade is superior.

Driving a Saga MT 2024. Switched from the stock brakepads to Bendix Metal King's. Drove up and down Genting roads quite often, but damn, the braking grips are not what was advertised, and made worse during rainy days. Luckily I drove a manual transmission saga, so I could balanced out braking hard with employing low gear, to cater to a proper sudden stop, especially going downhill, with all the speed bumps up there. And the brake dust? Lord! It's like I painted my wheels with paint, each time I got home.

Those Bendix Brake Pads have been almost doubled in price over store bought.
