once the ceramics are done, can you just stick in the oem irons but use the caliper that came w/ ceramics? are the discs same thickness/diameter?

there are ways. oem cup car 997 rears. then aftermarket fronts such as wrightwood racing or others

So...lets summarise.....these brakes definitely do not do what Porsche originally said they would...ie " last over 100,000miles and designed for extreme use on the road and track".....Alcon floating Steels are better brakes(amongst others) at a small fraction of the cost of replacement PCCBs (at approx $10,000 per rotor/pad).....there is some inital lack of performance of the PCCBs in the wet...which has badly caught out some experienced drivers...and its seems that you need to replace them at around 12,000/15,000 miles....they are a bit lighter..but not many drivers can tell the diffence in weight on the handling...the new generation PCCBs as fitted to the 997 GT3 cup racers are being changed after every race by Manthely Racing....and if you drop the car into a gravel trap the dics can be ruined.....am I missing something or are they overexpensive and not worth the trouble....actually leaving the cost out of it....they still arent up to it!!!

Paying attention would cost them money. The subject is dead unless someone wants to test them in court imho.
