Has anyone with 944 turbo brakes ever had brake fade?

Hi Guys,

Just wondering if any of you out there running the 4 spot brembo's all round have ever pushed your cars hard enough that youve had the brakes start to fade, and/or boiled the brake fluid.

Personally I dont think is possible unless you have the most crappy brands of pads ever made, unless perhaps your cars has put on some weight and is trying to stop from 200km/h repeatadly around a racing circuit...

I bought new brake pads for my car recently, and the only ones i could source were EBC red stuff ceramics. There wasnt anything more tame available. Thought ive had these before on another car and they felt nice at moderate speeds and got better as they got hotter.

Ive also run bendix ultimax real asbestos pads, supposidly the best pad you can run (though illegal), and they were downright dangerous untill you got them warm. Unpredictable grabbing the rotor left or right... But were amazing when they were warm. Very controllable once up to temperature.

Woo Hoo! Great to see GL up and running again!

Cheers,
Ian
