Making Sense of Porsche Brake Colors

5/1/202112:00 estFiled to: OptionsBy: Chris Cushing

Porsche was not the first company to offer disc brakes. That honor goes to the lowly Crosley Hotshot back in 1948! Indeed, Porsche began offering disc brakes in 1962, the same year that Studebaker introduced a Bendix system on the Avanti. Porsche had been using rotors and calipers on racing cars for a few years by the time it introduced them for …

Porsche’s Surface Coated Brake: The Ideal Compromise Between Carbon and Iron

7/13/20206:06 estFiled to: Porsche PartsBy: Tommy Parry

  A tungsten coating on carbide rotors: another world first from Porsche. A mirror finish, better response, less fade, no rust, and 90% less brake dust than a typical iron rotor. This last advantage is illustrated by the bold choice of painting the Porsche Surface Coated Brakes (PSCB) calipers white—any brake dust would be obvious with this …

GT4 RS Spied Testing at the Nurburgring

4/30/20208:00 estFiled to: Porsche Cayman, Porsche PrototypesBy: Tommy Parry

Despite wearing a coat of incognito black, this test mule's NACA ducts, swan neck wing, and a raspier exhaust note leave an indelible impression on the keen observer's mind. The unmistakable shape and even proportions of a 718 Cayman, dressed in all the aerodynamic accessories, suggest that Porsche is looking at wedging a harder, faster version of …

The Evolution of Porsche Disk Brakes

11/11/201610:16 estFiled to: OptionsBy: Pepper Girl

There are a number of qualities and features that instantly identify a Porsche to those in the know. That solid thunk you get when you close the driver's side door, the evolutionary yet still iconic design of a 911s rear-end and the ability to reverse the spin of the earth when you step hard enough on the brakes. It's a feeling that never fades …

Video: Chris Harris Drives The New 911 Turbo

8/12/201610:15 estFiled to: Porsche TurboBy: Bradley Brownell

I'd like to start by making it known that it is a shame Chris Harris' stuff has been moved from YouTube to a native video player on the Top Gear website. Mostly because this has made it so much harder for me to become aware of his awesome videos when they come out. This particular video was released last month, and I wouldn't have known about it if …

Ever Wonder How Porsche’s Ceramic Composite Brake Discs (PCCB) are Made?

1/31/20134:52 estFiled to: OptionsBy: Pepper Girl

Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes on a 2011 Turbo S

Whenever I walk up to our 993 the first thing my eye is drawn to are those "Big Red" brakes by Brembo. Now, on a lot of newer Porsches you'll see yellow calipers glowing behind the wheels. The yellow color calls out ceramic composite brakes and lets you know that particular Porsche can stop pretty damn quick. If you ever wondered what these …
