I find the rear more of a problem than the front but still if you scrape the front a lot due where you live/drive then the FAL is a good option.

I'm similarly up in the air regarding the nose lift. Seems like it's a common point of failure (or at least, was) in the past on GT3s, and the fact that it's not any lower than the Spyder/GT4 which people have been driving without a lift makes me wonder if I should skip it.

I have it optioned as insurance. 30,000kms/18,614 miles on the GT4 without a scrape but I had much experience with another low ride car. Would have optioned it on the GT4 if available. I have had a few we better turn around there is no way we are getting in there moments though.

Shipping cost is high too, because of the oversized nature.
Now up to $380 at Suncoast Parts.
Was $100 cheaper.

I wonder then what they were testing here. North American non-OPF system perhaps (hopefully)?

Going from CL to 5 Lugs will require a host of other parts from Porsche which I don't know yet if they are available. My plan was to stay with CL.
The front AP kit from the 992 will probably bolt, they do need to test it on a 4RS. Rear one we still need the details if this was a carry over from GT4 or from 992 GT3.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure they will do a F+R kit once Porsche start delivering cars in the US...and with a 394 mm front rotor and their caliper you are almost at PCCB weight while being able to fit 19" wheels.
Another option would be if PFC develops their 380 kit for the 4RS.

yeah, but were the AP kit shaves weight is with their caliper while PCCB does it with lighter rotors, were weight savings is most significant. Switching to 19" wheels might save you 2-3 pounds per corner (wheel + tyre combo) vs OEM setup. We'll see. But i'm bummed i cant get my car with PCCB.
APs rotor may not be as light as PCCBs but it's lighter than OEM Iron.
The wheel is the one you need the lightest. A set of 19" forgelines with Pirelli DHs saves 7-8 lbs per corner compared to the GT4 982 wheels.
Going with a set of Lightspeed or Augment Mag wheels in 19" would be the ticket coupled with the AP kit.
BTW...the AP setup will brake far better than the PCCBs...I will trade 1-3 lbs per corner for having bette rbraking.
