For anyone who can't get PCCB, Surface Transforms "ST" is already shipping fitments for 992 GT3/GT3RS customers. ST offers a 408x36 front with a 380x32mm rear (stock sizes, no spacers required!). You use your stock calipers with the PCCB pad shape. The recommended RSC1 pads coupled with these discs are noiseless and dustless on the street and very capable on track. This setup saves a massive 48lbs of unsprung, rotating mass over the stock iron discs. Lots of folks going this route and are very pleased.
For those with PCCB who will be tracking their cars alot, ST has discs available for you as well. These will be 410x36mm front with 390x36mm rear (stock sizes). I can ship globally and offer the best pricing. Please contact me if you have any questions at all. Thanks.

The AP Radical calipers use a different offset and will not work with the ST rotors. They also don't offer a pad shape that is compatible with PCCB rotors are far as I know. I am looking into a solution to offer STs with PFC calipers, but nothing with AP calipers at this time due to a lack of pad options. To be clear, ST rotors are designed to work with either stock iron or PCCB calipers. They have fitments for nearly all Porsche applications, and certainly all GT car applications.

ST's are on like every other GT car at Sebring some track days, often in combo with slicks. Never heard a negative word about them. Would like to run, but too cheap, so I'll just keep paying for iron replacements until that cumulative cost far exceeds ST. Feels more frugal.

In case there's interest... I reported above that the original build start date for my car was April 7th. This got pulled in to Feb 24th sometime in January. I can now report that the build did indeed commence on that day. I have a couple of pictures from the production line (exiting paint shop and body on the top of the elevator from the bridge down to the production line floor). VIN number updated and is present now in the new web order tracking.
For unrelated reasons, I happened to be talking to my sales rep yesterday so we checked the system view from the dealership end. It confirmed the status as shown in the web page. One "interesting" additional detail fell out of that system though. Apparently this model has not yet received certification from the State of California (agency that oversees air quality considerations apparently). So that will be a gate to delivery if it's not done soon. It also implies that none have been delivered in the US yet?? [Can't vouch for validity of this info -- just repeating what I was told.]

Interesting. What about ports of entry in other parts of the country? I wonder if the ones that were tracked at thermal this month received some type of exemption?

I think delivery to me (WA) is going to be gated by that certification then. The car is due to ship through Benicia, CA but since WA does follow California clean air standards it sounds like the car will sit pending certification. At least that is if the car hasn't already sat in Emden and/or taken enough time en route that PCNA has the certification done by the time it reaches Benicia.

Per Wikipedia... The following states that have adopted the California standards are: Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico (2011 model year and later), New York, Nevada, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Virginia, Vermont, and Washington (2009 model year and later), as well as the District of Columbia.
