Brake pads OEM Porsche or OEM Volkswagen
But the MK2 brakes by far hands down feel better and seem to grab better. I'm not sure why that is, they are actually more worn than my Mk1.
I forgot to mention that the Corrado has had the oil and filter changed within the last 300 miles, the brake pads have plenty of pad life, and the tires are in decent shape.
You can also try the harder OEM VW pad in the rear. They'll take longer to wear down than the soft version of the OEM pads and generate less dust. I installed them on mine last year and there is no layer of black dust between car washes. The down side I get noise when there is rust on my rotors but that usually goes away after a couple of braking stops.
Corrado 11 inch brakes should give plenty of stopping power. My Corrado stops on a dime too.
I took the car to the dealer and they put new rear pads and rotors on.
The R32 brakes are A LOT better. You'll like them!!
944 Turbo brakes are definitely a step up from standard 928 brakes, they are all aluminum 4 piston jobs front and rear.
I've already had my 3.2 TT at the track (same brakes) and after the 3rd session (out of 5) the brakes began to fade. Also by upgrading you would also get a weight saving although with these HUGE brakes prob the same (lol). Actually I still think even with these you'd save 20-30lbs for both corners.
We tow with the van, and load it up with parts to go to shows, and the brakes are not inspring confidence!
I've read some other threads where people have had to replace their brake pads at 20k miles or so, some think it was due to a tight emergency brake forcing the brake assist to clamp.
