My 981 Cayman is very maintenance friendly. I’ve done oil, transaxle oil, spark plugs (tight space but doable), brakes, etc. It is quite a bit easier than the 718 since you have to remove underpanels to gain access to the underside of engine/transaxle.
Brembo is a good brand when it comes to rotors and ceramic brake pads. I got a pair of rotors and ceramic brake pads for 280ish CAD plus shipping and taxes.
I usually buy Brembo.
I have Brembos on the front of my 09. Working great for me.
I bought a set of brembo discs and pads, OEM spec. They work a treat and its much quicker to stop than oem brakes
New ceramic brembo brake pads all around. 10/25/2024
Drilled Brembo max rotors and Brembo pads
Did you upgrade to drilled and slotted rotors? I did brembo metallic pads and brembo drilled n slotted in my e46 and they felt like that from the rip. Keep in mind if you’re upgrading to something that is meant for tracking then u kind of sacrifice comfort.
Mine are done after 7400km (4900mile). I just replaced the stock tires with Pirelli Corsa 2 and the grip difference over stock is amazing, now need new brake pads. I am leaning toward brembo sintered.
Update: I went with Brembo SR which are the Sintered Racing pads for the front and SP compound for the rear. The remaining pad life on the front was about 10% and 80% for the rear. My fronts were missing pieces of pad.
Man I have civic ep3 I know it's not the same but I did mine for 180 pounds it's like 220buck brembo pads and rotors front and back. I did it myself but dude that sound fucking expensive
