I went through a set of RSC1 pads in 5 track days but ccb's still had 68-70% left..I agree with Randyc151 about getting another opinion..

They were at the low end of the spec. but i was getting alot of chipped edges.
Champion Motorsports is who checked them. But i am not done yet with my investigation. i just today received some Race BRAKE CCBs today.
CHAMPIONs new 68 mm turbos put the TTS in another realm!

They are $13.2k for a set of 4. A lot less than OEM PCCB rotors. Let me know how they are in terms of performance and noise

For track junkies needing the daily driver 991TT, here is a sub $5k combo spec'd out with Tarrett and some Elephant racing parts. Both have outstanding customer service!:






Front track widened. Stock PASM suspension with lowered Eibach springs. Dog bones preset at stock length.

With good alignment settings the car has superb neutral handling at the limit and very well planted, lap times at par with 991GT3RS and modded 997GT2s..

Street driving excellent, comfort level slightly deteriorated yet much softer than GT2RS, and some light rear suspension mount noise, which can be avoided by not replacing the rear shock bushings to monoball.

Adjustable Cup LCA's
Shims for wider track (used 16mm)
Front and rear Camber plates for OEM suspension
Shorter Eibach springs
Rear long, mid and short dog bones (with 4 wheel steering don't get the rear toe arm)
Rear suspension monoball bushings

Kept it relatively simple, no need for anti-sway bars, drop links, anti-dive, etc.. Simple installation.
The car handling with sport setting and a good alignment is perfect in GT3RS territory. Reaches 1.4Gs with no banking and is a DD.

Thanks, Jean, but can you find some time to be more specific as the brands, models and part numbers?

Randy, I specified the parts I wanted and got them all from Ira at Tarrett including the springs (some parts are from ERP), they procured the monoballs from Elephant Racing, another top notch outfit.

I will PM you you the order and parts details.
