the treu motorsport rotors are not made to used on the street car. You need a central lock for them.
Only the very early Motorsport rotors from 99 and 2000 could be used since the holes were smaller

Konstantin, Here is the USA the motorsport rotors work fine on the street car. They are a lot less expensive too.

Thr True MS rotors do not fit in teh street cars. The holes for the mounting are too big and you will have a gap.
are you sure they are the real one?
can you sent me a pic of the MS and of the stock street one.
Are we talking about the 350 mm for the 6 pistons brakes?

They come from PMNA - they cost $571 for a set of fronts and $328 for rears. I have them on my GT2. Your shop can likely order directly from them. They do not sell retail or to the public. Their phone is 714-546-6939. Artic Fox if you bought Andrews car, I believe you have the PMNA Cup rotors on your car now.

I run them on my GT2.

Are the Cup rotors better quality than GT3 OEM or are they essentially the same but at a lower price?

You are correct Sir...I do recall him saying that, but at the time, it was all blah blah blah to me...now I am starting to understand the difference. Mine are fairly grooved and have some cracks around the holes but still brake staright and shake-free. Tim

Default Cup Car Rotors

So the Motorsport GT3 Cup Car front rotors are extremely similar to the "license plate car" GT3 front rotors. The Cup Car rotors are about 1mm thinner (when new) than GT3 PCNA rotors. GT3 Cup rotors are also less expensive in terms of price when new. Cup Car rotors are frequently sold for around $330. Yes we do still have them for a good price (it has gone up a bit, as have most Porsche parts in the last 6mos.) to $302 each, it's still comparatively better to the PCNA rotor at about $400 each. Normal observed longevity is the same, high performance braking has yielded normal wear signs at near equal rates.
See you Friday for those going to T-Hill.
