This is more than you need as you might not be changing the rotors. Mikymu's DIYs are a huge help. https://rennlist.com/forums/997-gt2-...onversion.html

I've run one pair of front turbo 350, steels in the rear (997.1), but it has been a long time since pulling hair out over the steel swap, and reading mikymu's thread. If doing it all over again, I'd stick with ceramics. The chances are they were going to serve me, and the next guy, just fine. 30 track events per year, not so much.

Can't possibly be lighter than ceramic. CRex, if you are still using them would you PM me? My entire setup might be in the air, soon.

Nissan GT-R is known to be the toughest on its brake due to the weight and speed.
Here is a typical review of how those intensive racing people rated RB brakes Against AP & Alcon on rotors:

Against PFC:

We have cup rotor size (380mm) made to exact TT offset set, retained at 34mm for a bolt on installation.

If weight is a concern like Mike on his ZR1, after converting to iron, we also offer a 32mm version.

That is a great question. If i recall correctly, the service manual stated that when changing out PCCB rotor, the whole assembly needs replacement. It is not recommend to only change rotor. The hat on the PCCB's are stainless s eel for the rear and aluminum for the front hats if i recall correctly.
if you want some rear hats pm me.
if you want some rear hats pm me.
