Even the current issue of Total 911 got it wrong in an article about an Australian 997 ordered in a semi Clubsport mode-they mentioned that the MO30 968 CS included LSD, which it did not of course.

What you expect when they call themselves Total 911. Can't really expect them to know anything about other models.

Fact checking should be even more precise when writing about something outside your area, but they did get it right by saying it was one of the best handling cars ever built!

I always thought the brake calipers were bigger with the MO30 kit??

Like they were the 928 big blacks. Learn something new every day I guess.

Fronts were, rears were stock size but with factory cross drilled rotors.

i knew i had to gets me some big blacks... if you run stock OR M030, there's lots of cool options. once you go huge on wheels and tires, t's all pretty much, heaven anyway... (gonna stray a bit OT for a moment); when i first saw the yellow ceramic brakes on the Carrera GT, i thought, "how might something like that look on one of our cars ?" after baking yellow engine paint and clear gloss onto my new big blacks, and being able to get such a hard shell finish, i thought i was just so cool. then i learned that several 911 owners (including Jerry Seinfeld as a special factory order?), and one 944S2 guy had been running non-ceramic Big Yellows for years.



damn attention ******.
