REAR Brake Pads And Brake Disc Package. Porsche 991 GT3

REAR Brake Pads And Brake Disc Package.
This Rear Brake Disc and Brake Pads Package is a complete, high-quality service kit designed for Porsche 911 (991 GT3) model. The package includes premium SHW rear brake discs, OEM-grade Textar brake pads, and the required rear brake wear sensor. Together, these components restore factory braking performance, safety, and smoothness to the rear axle.

Fits:

• Porsche 991.1 GT3 3.8L (475Bhp) 2014-16

Diagram Ref No 1, 4, 5

What This Product Does:

• Replaces the rear brake rotors (the discs that the brake pads clamp onto) with new SHW units, restoring optimal rotor surface, correct thickness, and structural integrity.
• Replaces the rear brake pads, ensuring fresh friction material with full thickness and proper pad-to-rotor contact.
  
• Ensures the wear-monitoring system is intact (through the sensor/hardware included), so you get accurate pad wear warnings.
  
• Restores rear-brake stopping performance, improves pedal feel and braking balance, and reduces noise, vibration or heat-related issues in the rear axle.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:

• Squealing, squeaking or high-pitched noises from the rear wheels when braking (indicating worn pads or pad material issues)
  
• Grinding or scraping noises during braking (pads worn to backing plate or rotor surface damaged)
  
• Brake pedal vibration or rear end judder when braking — often due to warped or uneven rotors
  
• Reduced rear braking performance — longer stopping distances, rear end stability compromised
  
• Soft or spongy brake pedal, especially under repeated/braking heavy loads (heat soak, worn components)
  
• Brake system warning lights if sensors detect very low pad thickness or failure of wear sensor
  
• Uneven pad wear or excessive brake dust from rear wheels
  
• Visible rotor damage — deep grooves, heat spots, blue-tinted discoloration, lip on rotor edge, rotor thickness below minimum spec
  
  

Why Replacement Matters:

• Safety first — Rear brakes contribute significantly to overall stopping power and vehicle stability, especially in sport/performance-cars like the 911. Worn rear brakes can compromise balance, especially under hard braking or cornering.
  
• Restored performance & feel — New discs and pads improve pedal response, reduce brake fade, and restore consistent braking performance.
  
• Prevention of further damage — Worn pads can damage the rotor surface; a damaged rotor causes uneven pad wear, vibration and potentially costly repairs. Replacing both ensures components work together optimally.
  
• Reduced noise & vibration — Fresh matched components reduce brake squeal, pedal judder and rear-end braking vibrations.
  
• Cost-efficiency — Given the labour involved to remove and reinstall rear rotors, calipers, etc, replacing the full kit once is more efficient than piecemeal replacements over time.
  
• Maintaining value & reliability — For premium performance vehicles, correct braking hardware is essential for reliability, driver confidence and resale value.
  
• Cooling & durability — SHW rotors are designed to meet OEM standards including improved heat dissipation and durability under high loads.
