Hi,
Think twice about the Zimmermans. They are not the same as OEM and are prone to cracking prematurely. Also, they cannot be machined, so replacement will be more frequent and they eat pads much more quickly. Zimmermans may look cool, but Porsche Brakes don't really need a lot of improvement, they won't appreciably shorten your braking distance.
Have you mic'd your existing discs to see if they are due? The wear minimums are: Fr - 22.6mm (0.89") Rr - 18.6mm (0.73").
For Pads, what kind of driving do you do? Track? DE? Auto-X? Pure Street? Mix? This will determine the best pad for you. Hi-Per Pads don't offer much advantage on the Street, but wear more quickly (and wear the Discs more quickly) and are usually noisier.
My Boxster is pretty much pure Street (other toys for beating the Wind), so I just went with the Pagid replacements - cost me $150 for the complete set (+ hdwr. kit) from Paragon - best price I could find. Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
