I've have PCCB's and they are great on the track... when they get near to being done, take them off and get them refurbished. Cost is about 1K a corner!

How can the rotors be refurbished? Are you talking about the calipers?

TOTAL: $26,976.88

The rotors are supposedly good for 300,000 K or 186,411 miles....assuming they are not abused at the track. I intend to go to the track so these puppies are coming off. I am actively in the process, getting GIRO 2 piece rotors up front, stock GT3 on the rear, until the budget permits a second set of GIRO rotors.

Haven't decided to shelf the ceramics, or to sell them off. Process pending...this is NOT a solicitation.

After recently spending north of $70,000 on my/our 10,000 mile Carrera White 6GT3, she is watching me like a hawk. I suppose if she spent $5,000 on a purse as some ladies do, I'd have my eye on her too.
We are tooling up 350mm CCM rotor kit for 996 GT3

First, the price for 4 rotors will be under $8k

Second, this system will be built for track drivers and pro racers in response to recent request following our 380mm kit release for 991 Turbo & Cup.

Thanks for the link. I'm very curious if anyone has sent their ceramic rotors to be refurbished by this company. If they deliver what they promise this could be a viable alternative to running steel rotors for the track.

If you sell, you will get some money. If you ever want to put them back on, it will cost far more to re-buy, than the $$ you got for selling them tomorrow.

cheers

looking forward to seeing the car, and you.

Agree with all of the above...got to get back to San Diego...love the mono-season approach, but so does everyone else, hence the population explosion. I'll be sure to look you up one I get back!

Hey Martin if you havent bought yet go with the ap or brembo rotors. The j hooks are excellent.
