What rotor/pad options are there? Will the 997 cup rotors work? Also hoosier has the 325s for the rear, but only 235s available for the front. Anyone see an issue bumping down to 18"s with the already lower gearing?

Spoke with John a while back at CCW. Just need to ship him my wheels and he'll fab up some centerlocks.
congrats on allocation. msrp i presume?

not sure about rotor/pad options. but i dont have allocation so you find out and let me know

i spoke with CCW too. he will cut it. just need your wheels. cool...
he might even cut 18" just to see if it fits over rotors.

the CF trim is heavier than the regular trim.
it's basically CF look layer glued on the the regular trim.

It would add an ounce or two. It's an overlay, not a real CF console.

And be careful trying to tie-in the CF; different suppliers for different parts result in subtly different weaves and shades.

zero delete
pick a color
peel off decal
drive the shit out of it

of course, i dont have an allocation.....
+1 I will do white / red but add Blue tooth and paint the stupid spray nozzles on the nose, abour $300 in options. Does that make it a poser? ;-) Just don't like chrome on a GT3 RS... :-)

The center locks complication bother me though.....What was wrong with 5 studs?

2nd allocation at my dealer, no news yet. I'll call him tomorrow when I am back in the county.
