Cool

And I thought the 08's were already too bity coming from no bite Pagid R29's.....
I'll be going through my couple of sets of '08's going 3 days Daytona followed by 10+ straight days at Sebring between now and Feb. That will be the real endurance test for me.

Are you looking for more bite than the 08s provide, or are you happy with their performance?

They were too grabby when new on new rotors. After a couple of sessions they are perfect and stay that way intil only 2mm of material is left. Popped in new pads and they were identical to the previous set after 3 corners. Very impressive.

I think most drivers prefer more initial bite then me. I'd give up some more bite if it gave me even better life :-) but 10 days, maybe 8 at Sebring with great concistency is all you can ask for..

Boys and girls, I got this part number: 37832006046. I tried to get them to write both left and right part numbers, but I got one back. Cyclops maybe.

These are the slotted rotors. Think the same as Izzone's. so 378mm diameter and 32mm width. The extra thinness (2mm) let's you use thicker pads if you want (17mm or 19mm, I think).

Rotors arrived



300g lighter than stock.


Also beware of which pads you buy. The first set I got was actually too large. It seems not all dealers/suppliers are aware of the fact that the GT3 mk2' disk "ring" is smaller than the one on the mk1 Cup car so they provide you with the Cup pads. This leads to:



However (but untested as of yet) they should fit the PFC disks.

Does a slotted rotor for rear parking brake help with power slides?
