Knowing you Yasin, you got these for a great deal. Good job. All of the mods you guys are doing. I need to step up to the plate soon....i just wish I had the time. Business owner, wife kids. I rarely get to drive the car. Anyhow, take care of the finger.
......nice brake job though

The wear sensors are the same 993TT/964T3.6/928GTS all using basically the same caliper and pad. The EBC pads do not come with the sensor provision as most race pads don't expect you to rely on the sensors and expect you to check before and after each event. You should find a decent improvement over the old brakes. I don't use the pad sensors on my C2 I just wire tied the sensor so it was out of the way.

Well guys the finger has 90% healed, I would take some pics, but you guys are not into gore so I'll save you the squeamish...LOL. Thanks for asking though.
SoFast, if you see my cost break down on my first post, you will see the cost of the calipers, rotors etc etc. I got a decent deal, but I would not say killer. By the time its said and done your looking at $2000 for what I did, which includes all brand new rear brakes.
Anthony, I will be cutting the factory wire sensors and spade connecting them so I will not have to worry about the indicator light.
A few guys on the 930 forum on Pelican are taking about the heavier front Bias with this 993TT set-up, but we'll see. I will never track this car, so I am thinking for a street application it should be fine, if it is not then I have the option to move the front calipers to the rear. The car stops great and the pedal pressure is beautiful, I drove it another 40miles last night.
Thanks to all comments. Happy & safe weekend to all.
