I have not heard about any persistent leaking issues ,but I was told that getting Moton to service their components promptly could be an issue. I am doing one or the other, just a matter of which one. Kevin is a JRZ guy so I Imagine I will stay on the reservation with that choice,but I havent seen a quote yet. Kevin

Oak... honestly the Motons have held up better over time. Newer style hardware etc.... There have been minor leaks on both.. more like "weeping" and so you're right- it can happen.

Kevin, the brakes worked fantastic at WGI last weekend, which is more than I can say for my hydrolic system.The brakes have MASSIVE stopping power and no fade with Pagid Oranges' installed. Thanks so much for making that kit avalible, it is worth every penny!

I'd love to make those mine, but there are a few mods ahead of them. I'm hoping you will offer this again later in the year when I've generated a few more Porschebux.

Just noticed this thread. Kevin, as you may remember, I have the GT3 brakes (350mm) at the front (installed by Sportec). How does this kit compare to what I have? Would it be an easy change?...

Yes and are any modifications needed to get the rotors to fit?

Pierre, I don't recall your brake system. The difference with this kit is that the rears are also 350mm.

Wanna, the kit is a direct bolt in, no mod is needed for the rotors, front or rear.

Kevin, do you have pads available for normal street use?
Just curious what pads are required for these...

Dennis;

For the front I use recommend the factory genuine Porsche Sport pad, and for the rear recommend the German textar pads. The genuine Porsche pads on the rear have a "hard" time bedding in and noise is a issue.

Edit>>If you install the Genuine Porsche pads on the rear and take the car to the track, they bed in in a few laps....
