Im after a new set of front brake pads for my 04 749r.

Are the pads in the radial brakes different from the normal calipers on the 999/749 range or do I have to get different ones?

Also, what do people recommend to go for and where to get them from? Its for track use only.

Cheers

They are all the same.:)
The OE Brembo pads are great,but very expensive.(£70 odd a side!:eek: )
Ive got EBC pads in my 999S.Cheap enough,..I found them ok for the road,but tend to fade when pushed hard on a trackday.I have heard good reports on Bendix pads,...I believe Nelly at Cornerspeed sells 'em,......might be worth a call.Another option is Performance Friction.
