Didn't you imply that the rotors had those nubs on them? I was giving evidence that they didn't, and that it's possible that the GT4 rotor and the GT3 rotor might be exactly the same, save for the GT3 rotor being more expensive. Same possibly goes for the 991.1 Turbo rotor, which is cheaper still.
Maybe I misunderstood your initial post...

So, what do we think the conclusion is, here? Are the GT4 / GT3 / 991.1 Turbo rotors all the same? They're all 380mm x 34mm...
Anyone here have experience with more than one of the above? (I'm betting they're the same part, but I'm not willing to bet $500 on it!)

Mike -
Check with https://www.gmpperformance.com/
Without going into all the details, they were able to salvage my weekend at VIR last November when I needed new rear pads for my 981 Spyder. Surprisingly, 981 Spyder brake pads are hard to find in a pinch. GMP was able to get Ferodo 991 GT3 / 981 GT4 pads to fit (with the help of a grinder). They spent a ton of time researching options and fitment
Bottomline is they are knowledgable and I bet can help. I realize you are asking about rotors and my issue was with pads...but I still think that they will have some insight.
Good luck
David
