- Hello Amici, Porterfield brake pads in the R4-1 compound were recommended to me. I dutifully ordered a set for my Spitfire. I should mention the car has been upgraded to GT6 brake calipers, the vener

- Love the Porterfields, never had a problem. Did somewhere along the line someone switch calipers? I know some are 3/16 and some 1/4 holes. I drilled out all my spares to 1/4 inch, all the same size.

- I run 16Ps on my GT6 and have used Hawk, Porterfield and my current favorite - something that Ted sells, can?t remember the name. In most cases in the past few years, I?ve had to egg out the holes fo

- Scott, Engineer Tim mentioned the 240Z connection. This leads me to believe the pads were designed for a Japanese knock off of the original 16P like so many other parts of the car. Likely built to a

- I have used all sorts of brake pads for my 16p caliper on my 69 TR6, Porterfield, Hawks, LBC, and others from ceramic to semi metallic. I always plan to drill them out, sometimes I get what I think a

- Good mentioning the mounting bolt difference of the P and PB calipers, Bill. The shoulder is metric to fit the PB caliper, but the thread is standard. Go figure. I have the PB calipers on my TR3. The

- Yes! I had to shim my rotors because the inside pad would not fit. Total PITA. Shimming the caliper is a breeze with factory shims. DH -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://

- I can?t think of a pad I?ve put into any of my British cars that I didn?t have to modify?either a little or a lot. Generally grinding some part of the backing plate to make the pad fit or engage the
