Default Porsche brakes under PFF7’s

Can Porsche brakes fit under Prodrive wheels?
The PFF7’s

next piont of call is do I have to take the car to have the brakes installed or is there a kit out there. I’d like the Caliper to say porsche.

I've tried several links on here that don’t work.

they dont fit as std if that's what you mean albeit i do believe we have a few customers with them under PFF7's.........

to be honest they were a decent conversion 10yrs or so ago because the calipers were available new as a silly price but these days there are far better offerings that dont involve the crazy pad prices / machining required

i,m on 18 x 8.5 with the 356mm porsche set up for an idea

as for brakes. i use pagid rs29 yellows. i have tried ap,godspeed,brembo,ksport and 2 with pf01 pf03 mintex cl6 pads. this set up on a scoob imo is unbeatable.

yes pads are expensive but when braking from 140 for the first corner on the gp track in germany ,then you realise were the money goes.

If all you want is a porsche badge, get your refurbed in red and apply the porsche decals...

If I remember correctly from my old set the word Porsche was actually engraved into the caliper and painted white. I believe the caliper to be from a cayenne so look out for some used ones on Ebay and get godspeed or as performance to knock you up some brackets. They do look awesome and I loved the attention they got

Which Mintex pads did you try? F4R?
How do you find the rs29 driving to track days? I need something to replace (temporarily?) CL rc5+
I have some prototype Bilstein inserts to test, which will involve more track time.
