F = 380mm min thickness 33.7 mm

R = 350 mm min thickness 27.7 mm

Note: mim thickness could vary car to car. These are my #'s

If StopTech comes out with a Ceramic alternative to PCCB, it will be flawless !

I've had the pleasure of working with the guys at StopTech for five years at the track and they were a large part of my Championships.

They (S.R. in particular) are fanatics about R&D and attention to detail.

I think I heard it on an Adam corolla car cast podcast with christini from ST as the guest...

it did not sound imminent at the time I heard it..

brembo type III - and done... not ceramic but amazing - just put them on my .1 RS as pccb replacements (380 front 350 rear)

The stock Red steels are pretty amazing too...but emits a crap load of dust. The dust alone is reason for me to switch...

stock reds are drilled and drilled means cracks and frequent replacement

you are right on the dust though

Stoptech is not yet close to a ceramic solution.

I have been in contact with MovIt who has developed a very interesting ceramic rotor which sounds in their literature to be technologically superior to OE PCCB in every way. Also pre-bedded pads(!).

As soon as I receive full information (hopefully by tomorrow AM) I will update this thread.
