This Pagid Racing RST 3 front brake pad set fits Porsche 964/993/944/968/928 applications (1986–1998). It is a brake friction component for transaxle and late air-cooled brake packages, and it should be chosen by pad shape, caliper style, rotor material, axle location, and compound rather than by chassis name alone.
Best matched to cars where initial bite and temperature stability matter more than quiet street manners. Pagid Racing friction materials are used in Porsche track, autocross, club-race, and fast-road brake setups where compound behavior matters. For this listing, the main decision points are sprint and repeated heavy-braking work, correct steel-rotor compatibility where applicable, and the fitment notes shown below.
The RST 3 compound is typically selected for a more aggressive response and high-friction character. It is not the same choice as an endurance-leaning RSL compound, even when the pad shape fits the same caliper.

Fitment & Compatibility
Use the fitment table below to confirm the exact year, model, submodel, and brake-package notes. Do not rely on a shared chassis code by itself, because Porsche often changed calipers, rotors, and pad shapes by trim, market, and option package.
PMB Performance has more than 20 years of Porsche brake experience, and we can help compare VIN, caliper casting, and brake-option notes before you order.
