Default 928 GTS Slotted/cross drilled rotors supliers

Hello:
I have a Porsche 968 with the Big Reds calipers as well as the factory 928 GTS rotors in front. I'm trying to install slotted or cross drilled rotors but can’t find a supplier for the front 928 GTS rotors. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Although Roger has a web site as provided by Tony, it's best to send him an email with your request. Roger is at roger@928srus.com

Also, GTS rotors were not originally cross-drilled or slotted. So you'll actually want the Turbo rotors if you want OEM cross-drilled stuff.

I wonder whether Roger's partial online shop does him more of a disservice than a simpler site saying to phone/e-mail. I suspect a lot of people go looking in his online shop for 928 parts and decide to shop somewhere that appears more extensive.

Roger has a new web site coming, I've seen the beta version and it addresses all of your concerns. He's a one man dynamo so give him time.

I do not agree 100% on the web site - every little helps - as we passed into sales of 7 figures in 2010 and 2011 has already beaten all expectations, however for my own sanity a web site is a must as we grow at such an alarming rate. We get a lot of orders from the web site.

I like talking 928's but you do not need to talk to me to buy an oil filter.

The new site is a master piece and allows search from every angle - whether you are a new comer or a seasoned 928 pro.

Populating the site with up to 30,000 plus parts is the hardest operation. As of early June we will have a team of two doing nothing but that.

I have GTS cast hole rotors for $185 each for the fronts and $135 for the rears. Solid stock rotors are expensive as they come from Porsche.

DUnno what SW you are using, but I manage about 350,000 PN's via Excel with the SW I use for brakes.

The part numbers are pretty simple you are right - however the descriptions and pictures take the time.

i'm running the Paragon GTS Brake kit + Porsche Big Black calipers on my 968.... and my last set of oem GTS/322mm rotors lasted 130 k miles, barely got halfway through, and the vanes finally rusted, overheated and warped due to the added heat buildup.... i would be happy to get these again, but i don't want to pay a grand if i can get something that's even 80% as good.

who makes a decent clone of the GTS rotors, maybe with slots and a few holes drilled?
