I have just installed new rotors on the 914/6 3.2 (911SC brakes).
If the new rotors are broken-in with new pads then the new pads are bedded-in, how long should the pads be cooled before being used for track purposes (DE events)? or Should the new rotors be broken-in (transfer of pad material onto the brake rotor friction surface) with used pads? New Zimmerman rotors and Porterfield R4 race pads. Thanks Eddie |

New Zimmerman rotors and Porterfield R4 race pads. We've changed rotors and pads at the same time in-between run sessions (on the 911) and used the next session for pad brake-in. Not the "correct" way to do it, but it worked just fine with no ill effects. If you have time, i'd let them cool off. If you don't have time, just drive it ...
