... My car was prepared by G&W Motorsports (Synergy Racing now) for the 1995 24 hrs. of Daytona. If my car history was told to me correctly, it qualified, but never made it to the starting line. Others have actually told me it finished and was in Excellence magazine. I got the May 1995 issure but didn't see my car in it.
It's pretty much stickered as it was that day. I'm planning on painting, but will insure the original stickering stays intact. I need to post more and newer pic. I'll will do that soon.

stock C2/4 and RSA front rotors were 298x28mm rears were 299x24mm , both ends vented, rear rotor 951 352 041 02
RS & Cup were 322x32 and 299x24 both ends drilled. The RS rear rotor is 951 352 041 91. the rear rotor is the same in all respects except drilled as the C2/4 rear rotor
turbo were 322x32 and 299x28

Thanks for all your help. I decided to call CDOC and as usual they took care of me. They have most of the info on my car from me and the previous owner so better to be safe than sorry. Bill, you're right. The fronts are bigger using the AP rotors, the rear, stock. I went with the Powerslot Frozens on the rear.
Another 964/RSA question: I registered on the RSA site and am trying to verify my color. Does anyone have a pic of the Farerri Fly Yellow? I think that's the color I have.

yellow pics here
I understood (from the maestro, his self -- KV) that there were only 4 in existence.
Well, three, if you go by official Factory recognition...
Read all about it, here (along with All the pics you could care to see.): http://www.rsamerica.net/articles/member/4FLY_RSAs.htm
Side note: being a jellybean color fan -- and seeing how one of these rsa-yellows was the very first 964 of any type that I got to test drive -- well, it's pretty easy to see why these yeller rsa's will always hold a soft spot in my heart.
Nice pick, Pat!

Correct. Its generally believed that only four fly yellow RSA's were built. If this one is additional to those and is in fact original in color that can be documented, that would be an important thing to know. At least for those that follow RSA's.

If you look at that certificate of authenticity in the link, it says "one of three" when in fact there are four known. Makes you wonder what the factory or Porsche N.A. really knows.

One of the 4 Ferrari Light Yellow (FLY) cars is in Rhode Island, owned by Anthony C.
On this track car, is there still an options label on the vechicle showing a paint to sample paint code?

I will, but I almost hate to right now. She's in sore need of a paint job. I'm really want to verify the history on my car. It's still stickered the way she was for the 1995 24 hrs. of Daytona and I'm wanting to keep everything pretty much as she ran.
She does have a sun roof (of course, not operable now). Someone told me that "true" RSA's don't have sunroofs...true?

hmmm....
And to think: this all started out as a simple brake rotor question...
(... now fast becoming an rsa detective/mystery story. Could this be... [thunder clap] "The Lost FLY"?, or is it simply, "The FLY That Couldn't Be Shoe'd")
