So my front rotors are getting thin and cracking. So off to the Porsche dealer to get ass raped for a pair of GT3 rotors. :shock: 480 Euro or 600 dollars for the pair :twisted: . Should have them tomorrow since dealer didnot stock on hand . Will post pics of the old onec I start to replace.

Hey, that's cheap. My Stoptech rotors and hats cost 970 dollars for the pair. :shock:

OK... I admit the hats can be used for more than just one rotor...

I feel a little bit better. That and I can go local and get them.

BTW, through how many sets of brake pads did you go before changing the rotors? I'm on my 2nd set of Pagid Yellow currently...

3 sets , but it was mainly because of cracking, not wearing too thin or grooving.

Not those , I have the 330 mm rotors. Couldn't tell you why the 996 turbos would be more.
