Okay. This is a feeler to even see if this will be doable. I have a connection that will be finding out numbers for us. They should be able to get the pads at a great price and be able to get sets for whatever caliper you have. I just want to know if you are interested (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) .

I will check to see about different kinds of Porterfields. I believe yes but let me check.

No Chappy... but you can get another set (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I'm interested; since I live near Porterfields, I can pick mine up there. Been doing business with them for several years.

Yes, I'm definitely interested. I plan on replacing my current brake pads with some Porterfield R4S's for the upcoming A/X season. I want one of these (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

I might be interested... but I'm still not even sure what brakes I'll be using! I've got the stock brakes, and I have a pair of 1989 911 fronts, but the guy I bought them from stiffed me on the struts.

Well, you have time to figure this out as it may be mid next week before I get to the official thread for those ordering. I just need to see how many I can get. If enough we can do it but if not this is dead (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I will be pushing this hard though as they will be around half of what Pagids are and the guy we will be going through is going to benefit us teeners pricewise so that anyone looking for great pads should not pass this up. Was that a run on sentence? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I'd be interested in at least one set front and rear for M calipers.

I may also need a set for the IMSA car...

I'd go for a full set of R4S (street) for a 914/6, front and rear.

I've never tried the street pads. The race units work great on the street without warmup, but they dust a *lot* and squeal like pigs and scare the soccer moms. We've had lots of discussions about the subject.

Some interesting reading just for the hell of it... link to a 914world search for "+porterfield +race* +street" threads
