Default Brakes!

So i see a lot of discussion here on brakes. CCB vs Steel, brake lines, slotted vs drilled, steel brake lines vs rubber. This is a really informative video regarding brakes. Hope you guys get some good info out of this!

Great video. I'm glad 911 brakes are so cheap... Had an M Roadster that was cheaper to get M3 rotors and 996/911 calipers with a bracket than to replace a single caliper!

Yes - in comparison. Have you looked at AMG or M brake costs? Good old fashioned brembos are priced will because they are on so many things!

I haven't. I guess now I'm even a little more glad I picked the 991 over the F80 M3 I was considering last fall.

I believe they are sold by brake performance and are not OEM
