Larger rotor? What other differences?

 

Likely different pad compounds as well.

 

Hello Tom Cochran,

Well as you said above ^^^ "Your patience is beginning to pay off"
I totally agree my friend from San Antonio, Texas and for what it's worth I'm glad I have made/taught myself to calm down as I aged.
Since there is really no doubt this GT4 will be this old-fellow's last true Sports-Car it's worth the wait to me.
I want my GT4 to be exactly what I want and it totally completed/finished when I take delivery at Porsche -of Nashville soon.

Can't comment on the brakes on UncleDude's GTS but his wheels certainly to my eyes are looking Great after him putting miles on it.

The GTS brakes appear similar to the 981 Spyder's, which ran a different compound pad than the GT4. The 981 Spyders didn't dust that bad, but the GT4 did like crazy. If you did Hawk Ceramics, you will get light dust like his GTS.

 

Archimedes,

Yes, I did go with the Hawk Performance Ceramic brake pads for Front & Rear.

If the Hawk pads hold down the brake-dust to the degree that UncleDude's wheels look like in the picture he posted that will work lovely.



Terry

 

Really looking forward to hear your opinions and the results on those pads.

 

I will make sure to come here and comment on what I think of the Hawk Performance Ceramic brake pads front & rear.
My pleasure ...........

Terry

 

Greetings,

Received a few pictures from Chris Marlin (Marlins Auto Detailing) that the GT4 Gloss Black "Rear-Wing-Graphics" arrived.
The GT4 side graphics have also been shipped so they should come in soon.

Tru Shine has now completed the Ultimate Track Package PPF.

I'm not sure how you sleep at nights, with your car SO close to being ready for so long. Your patience is atypical here.
I note your insurance card expires in one month. I was not aware policies could be that short in duration before renewal. Pretty much thought regardless of how often the billing cycle was broken down into the shortest policy was 6 months. Your wife is in the business, so I'm sure she knows all the options. Me, I like to renew insurance as infrequently as possible, as I'm always concerned that I'll forget to put the latest card in one of my cars and not have it when needed.

 

ausgang,

I sleep a lot easier these days and here is why.
The GT4 finally did eventually arrive at Porsche of Nashville with No-Damage at all.
It then was Transported to Tru Shine for (PPF) then next door to Marlins Detailing for the Graphics & Gtechniq products.
The graphics for the sides of the GT4 we all hope will arrive this week at Marlins.
Also, Cathy & I went to BOA (Bank of America) early Monday morning and did the loan for it.
Which was instantly approved within seconds.
Note*
We need to have something that is revolving credit so we chose the GT4 for that.

I have patience simply because as the years have rolled by I have made myself to calm down !!!

Speaking of the GT4 and insurance.
Simple the 1st ins. card was just to get the GT4 and the VW Golf R renewing at the same-time.
(Per my request)
When I place the New/Latest Insurance-Card in the driver's glove box I automatically remove the previous card.
I'm **** buddy



Cathy and I plus Porsche of Nashville are all looking forward to us taking delivery soon.
(Porsche of Nashville is actually more anxious than we are as they want their money)

Wait, what? You have been doing all of these customizations to this car and you didn't even have a loan on it? In other words, the dealer was letting you do all of these things and you didn't technically own the car yet?

 

While I find all this posting of pics of boxes a bit odd, I find Terry’s enthusiasm inspiring and I am truly hoping that he and his wife love this car. Not just for him but for everyone who has clicked on this thread over the last few months. Terry, I still think you should have gotten the PCCBs, but I truly hope you love this car. I sure love mine.

 

that’s not surprising to me. Why would he need a loan until the day he’s signing papers in finance. I usually threaten to pay cash until the rate gets as low as possible.

 

I thought I was on Rennlist...seems like a FB post/thread.
