I would be interested in the CCM-X upgrade for my non-PCCB setup.
Those CCM-X rotors are designed and built by RB using Surface Transforms' CCM-X discs:
400x34 front (vs OE's 380x34)
390x30 rear (vs OE's 380x30)
This CCM rotor set up will retain your OE calipers with spacers which will be included in the package for a bolt on installation - The most affordable alternative.
We believe this option will be a good alternative for GT3 owners who don't want to pay high cost of factory pccb and with great concern of future high replacement rotor cost, yet still can enjoy the benefit from the light weight CCM rotors, and swap with factory iron rotors/pads to optimize your driving needs - Street or Track.
Thank you.

How will the CCM-X wear in comparison to factory PCCBs? Have heard that the PCCBs are holding up very well, even with extensive tracking. What is involved in replacing them? Do you buy another kit or is there a lesser cost based on initial ownership? Thanks in advance for the info!
For street driving I would say pccb and ST should make no big difference, but for track applications (especially for heavy tracking) due to different type of construction ST rotors will definitely be stronger and work better in terms of delivery of brake torque, and wear under the extreme temperature.
Initially you would have to purchase the complete rotor assembly, and only the replacement rings when the rotors wear out.

I thought that one of the biggest benefits of CCM is that they don't wear out? Aren't the pads supposed to be the only consumable part of a CCM setup?

Are the stock red calipers the same as the yellow PCCB?
Did you ever confirm whether the stock red Porsche calipers are the same as the yellow PCCB calipers?
If they are the same, wouldn't it be possible to install the larger direct replacement 410mm and 390mm ST rotors with the stock red Porsche calipers? What else would be needed to do this? Spacers?

The caliper offset is not the same, but we can change the hat design to fit the red calipers.
Would it be possible to upgrade to the 991 caliper with an adapter to run GT3/GT3RS/Turbo PCCBs?
Would it be possible? Yes.
You would need someone to custom make you a pair of adapter brackets to go from 130mm to 225mm spacing, and with the correct offset.
IMO, it would be easier to change the front uprights to 997 S and then add 997 Turbo PCCB brackets.
