RB, I presume the kit is calipers and rotors...? I do not want to replace my calipers, so to confirm: you provide ceramic replacement rotors that work with OEM calipers and center lock system? presume your pads are also needed? Thanks
This is what I am interested in as well. As far as I understood, if you want use the RB rotors, you have to get the whole kit first, which I am not interested in.
I agree with SanDiegoDavid that it would be better to see how RB's products perform on Porsches and I am not liking the sales pitches at all, as from my opinion they seem a bit too aggressive in comparison to other dealers on Rennlist.

It's a complete brake system including RB track duty 6/4 pot calipers built with open top for easy pad change.
RB calipers are designed to use the same brake pads as ZR1/Z28 front and rear. These ZR1 brake pads are larger than pccb stock pads with plenty of thermal capacity to assure successful braking under CCM higher temperature (than iron brakes) operation.
This ZR1 front and rear pads combo is the same set up as those exotic/super muscle cars like Ferrari Scuderia/F458, Aston Martin DBS, McLaren, Viper ACR; either come with CCM as default or options. Popular application assures you of multiple choice of compounds and low prices from aftermarket suppliers than just OEM or Pagid with OE calipers.
Although these CCM calipers also supplied by Brembo, but none of them is closed top like GT3, which if you replace/check pads often you will probably agree OE Porsche calipers are not the right design for track racers aside from its quality level of build and construction.
So why can't you offer a direct replacement for a pccb for even a better price point? I think many here including me don't want to swap our calibers out.
Reality about pccb, in my case, 991 rs, 3 trackways (700km), changed the pads once at 60% used.
front are begining to suffer, although porsche measurements suggest they are just fine. Car total km. 10k.
had completely killed my pccb on 997 gt3 after same Milagros though and went on bermbo type 3 and pagid rs29, great, 30k 12 track days, 1 set of pads +40% of the other. Could not see the difference.
991rs much stronger and stable brakes than 997 though, discs much larger, wait and see until they are dead, I guess racingvrake iron solution is the only one to keep the clapiers.
anyone has some experience on an iron transformation keeping the clapiers?
Hi, not sure my car counts on this thread in your minds but it is a Porsche and I have these brakes. So far RB has been very good to work with and these brakes have been great on my car!
I replace my front PCCBs with OEs on front and rears with RBs. I also had Sicom rebuild my original OEs for about $3K, including air freight.
You seem to be the first providing feedback from the SICOM refurbish, can you provide a few details on the experience?.. Did they say how many times they can be refurbished?.. $3k is less than replacement cost of steel rotors, would take out the pccb tracking fear for most of us.. Can't wait to hear feedback on this.
