You would do better with a 355mm front, but if you won't have any problem with either.

I have 670 hp and reach about 180mph at Sebring. I have the 2 piston rear, and the Stoptech 355 4 piston front. You won't have problems if you have fresh fluid.

Its a Caliper from a 996 Porsche. Bigger and cheaper because you can buy them used instead of spended big money on all new stuff.

Girodisc, can you please IM me how you did it. I'm guessing a custom mount/bracket, new lines, and an aftermarket rotor w/ the correct offset and bolt pattern? Thanks.

This is an easy fix with powder coating. If you can save $, why not?

Is it just mine or do these Ferodo 2500 pads dust like a ****? Anybody have any other suggestions for AP Racing compatible pads with less dust?

When you guys come up with a pad that doesn't dust as much, please post the knowledge. The pads I have dust alot too. And with a lip on the rims, that shows the dust fast.
