Missing your GT3 yet? I certainly am. I will get a 997 GT3 (or RS) when this economy settles out.
Miss her? Like my nympho girlfriend from my college frat days

However, that all ends when I am on track with the new race car. That makes it all worth it. I'll be in the RSA for a few years and then probably move over to a cup where I know the platform well and I belong

No one will appreciate your car more than I will Paul- You sold it to the right person- be assured. You sorted it out and I'll drive it harder than it's been driven before. Thanks again- don't be offended if I question things or make minor changes- it's all a process- I have alot to learn about the car and won't learn unless I ask and seek information.

Rob I am not in the least. Its your money. But drive it at the track before you come to the conclusion that it is not set up properly> Enjoy

I couldnt blow Robs cover on this. He did it for himself.

I just called her last week

Buy Andy T's cup car (Becker) it is PERFECT.

You called her? Did she ask about me?

Damn I miss those days sometimes

BTW....I know Andy's car quite well. It used to belong to a friend of mine and the wheel that was in that car ended up in my GT3!

Guy's, any recommendation for my GT2? Currently running RS19's all around on gt3 front cup rotors and 3 piece rear cup rotors... Been good, but should I go RS29's all around? RS19 front and RS29 rear? THANKS ... Martin

Absolutely the best advice that I can give you is to go to this website and send Joel an email. He will answer any question and probably be able to sell you what you need.

iLLM3,

Your combo of brake pads is just fine...the RS19 and RS29 are so close in compound, that it would make a negligable if any difference. The RS 19 was the original long distance endurance compound from Pagid and the RS29 is a modern day replacement for the RS19. You could experiment with not a lot of worry of bad choices.

When you kill those Cup front rotors, switch over to my Sloted DeMan fronts and enjoy a much longer life..

I actually think I might be due for a new set of fronts now, not rears though since the multi piece rears are monsters! I will contact you soon, I have some questions as well for my suspension !

For what it's worth I spoke with Andreas at Pagid USA yesterday. I asked him about a streetable track pad for a 2005 GT3. He recommended RS19 front and rear for street/track use. I mentioned the RS14 for the rear and he said using the RS14 on the street would not be recommended as it's too hard on discs and takes too long to get up to temp.

The RS29 is suppose to be the 19 replacement though and "better", so why are people still recommending and using the 19?

The info I got from Pagid was probably a result of the question I posed. I asked what he thought of RS19 front and RS14 rear.
