This Pagid Racing RST 3 front brake pad set is used on Porsche 986/987 applications (1997–2008). It is a brake friction component for 986/987 front caliper setups, and it should be chosen by pad shape, caliper style, rotor material, axle location, and compound rather than by chassis name alone.
This front 2407 fitment carries the RST 3 compound, which separates it from the RSL 29 and RS 44 choices. 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 front axle track use with stronger initial response, 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.
