Default 997 GT2 brakes PCCB > Iron

I need a help.

I have a 997 GT2 and i use almost on track, i want to take off the PCCB to save it and instal an Iron brake rotors, i saw brake rotors from Girodisc using my OEM caliper, does anyone here use like this? need to change something else?
Or is better to change all, rotors and calipers?

Suggestions are welcome!

Thanks.

It is a good idea to preserve your PCCB rotors. Like Spyerx said, you only need to change the rotors and pads. The calipers don't need to be changed. And there are a number of choices available for rotors and pads. In the east coast it is very popular to use 380mm AP floating fronts and 350mm OEM steel rears from 997.1 Turbo (it does look a little odd to have slotted front and drilled rear rotors but its the most economical rear option and compatible with rear parking brake). Essex/AP J-hook matching front and rear are also very nice.

I have a pair of AP fronts that was used for only one session if you might be interested-
