Lucas 244 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 Hello, We've got these PFC Z-Rated pads on stock. I've got them on my car, and they are brilliant, way better than Cosworth Street master or DS. Cheaper as well, so that's a win win. Performance Friction is an American company, trying to get into our market. Their products are great, just like their 2 piece discs (not for GT86, yet), the problem is they mainly focus on higher end cars, e.g Nissan GTR's, Porsche's, Audi RS6's etc, so while I'm waiting and praying for more support when it comes to 86's, these pads are something that I can really enjoy using. They're mainly for road use, good for track use as well, but if you want to go to the track and be serious about it, a different compound would be better. Let me know if you're interested. RRP: £57.16 inc. VAT You get 10% off, so it's only £51.44 inc. VAT then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KevinA 695 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 I run these pads in my TSS sprint GT86, results speak for themselves. But as I drive a good distance to venues they certainly are fine on the road, so a thumbs up from me. Just need matching rears from PFC and the cake will be iced 4 Lucas, Cerastes, TTR and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just need matching rears from PFC and the cake will be iced We keep telling them, when we see them or even inbetween conversations when we order stock, but they wouldn't listen! I'm gutted they don't do rears... I'm running Cosworth Street Masters at the back, they're good, but the price tag is just ridiculous compared to PFC that are cheaper and better.

Rich 378 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 I'm running these, they are excellent road and light track pads. Good enough for me on track at least! Need to find a good rear pad now. 1 Lucas reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rich 378 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 I am using Cosworth pads at the back currently, they're a bit prone to squeal though, and not that cheap. I might try Hawk HPS pads next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KevinA 695 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 I have tried various in the back, surprisingly EBC yellows work well and are quiet. 2 Rich and Lucas reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey P 32 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 I have these on mine too and agree good pads road and track use, also agree would be nice to get some matching rears if they ever tool up for them. 1 Lucas reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodename47 446 Report post Posted July 14, 2017 The issue is that the fronts are Impreza standard size, so have been available long before the 86/BRZ. However due to rears being the same as the Legacy GT there isn't the demand. I'd have thought that they would do the rears. There is the .01 (race) compound available in our rear size, so it wouldn't take much for them to do it. 1 Lucas reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTR 509 Report post Posted September 22, 2017 1 hour ago, don said: They survived a couple of stints at the Nurburgring GP track which is notorious for being harsh on the brakes and also a few laps on the Nordschleife. Perfect fast road / track use. Really? My pedal went to the floor with PFC Z's after 3 laps of Bedford Autodrome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ade 517 Report post Posted September 22, 2017 I couldn't get a friction profile out of PFC for these but after talking to Dan I decided to try the z rated on my bbk. I also went though pads like crazy on stock setup, destroyed a set of ds2500 in one day. Its all about clubracers isnt it tashan Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk 1 TTR reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steeps 294 Report post Posted September 22, 2017 Clubracers eat discs, it's getting the balance between a longer life pad and how often a disc would need to be changed (and the cost of both) Got some PFC pads to try once my streetmasters are low, but that could take a while now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
