From my parts network (Worldpac) the Cayenne rotors don't appear interchangeable, when you guys say Cayenne rotors, do you mean the original Cayenne (turbo?), both front and rear? I'd appreciate some info or part #s.

Can't speak for the others, but I mean the ATE rotors made for the Cayenne. I go to Tire Rack's web site and set my car to a 2004 Cayenne S and look at the ATE PremiumOne slotted rotor. I need 350mm front and rear for my ex-PCCB car.

ATE #CW34123 and #CW34124 for front left/right in 350mm. $130 each.

Rears I use 997 Cup rotors but I might try the 911 turbo rear rotors.

If anyone is interested in trying the Girodisc rotors, send me a PM, I have a used front set from my old 996 GT3. They have 9 tracks days on them and shoud be good for 6-9 more tracks days. I will sell them for $200, if you like them you can just order replacement disc for considerable less then a full rotor set up. This will offer you an afforable way the try Girodisc without spending $1K.

I will be putting Girodisc on my 2011 GT3 as soon as the OEM rotors are done, I was really happy with the improved braking that the Girodisc provided on my 996 GT3.


SOLD!!

@ Serge944: Would you consider the image of the rotors that you earlier attached, still good for a track day or two, or not ?

My discs look the same right now after 6 trackdays and 3000 road miles

It looks to me like there are fine cracks that are extending from one hole to another. Porsche uses that as one of the criteria for not using them. Since you are going to have to replace them soon anyway, why take the chance? What are you saving, and what are you risking?
