Is this PCCB in this pic?

There was a very fast 996 GT2 in Poland, tuned by 9FF, car even went to Nardo for the high speed test.

Anyway, I always thought it had ceramic brakes because of yellow calipers, today found this pic and the disc look to be a plain steel one. Am I right?

I don't think so, as the rotors don't appear to be the floating type, i.e. they are solid around the hats.

Those look like steel to me. I thought the PCCB are two pieces, hat and rotor.

The rotors look too bright and shiny to be PCCB. PCCB are darker, grayish. They look steel to me.

Those are defintley iron rotors, as stated earlier, PCCB's were a two piece hat/rotor setup. Somone had those calipers painted.

Steel rotors with either painted calipers or PCCB calibers converted to steel rotors.

This looks to be the guy with all of Markski's upgrades over in Poland he's posted pics and vid of his GT2 before...nice guy and great car...

all GT2 come with PCCB standard, looks like he's put on steel rotors in place of his PCCB rotors and running steel rotor compatible pads with the PCCB calipers, this is fairly common for the PCCB crowd especially on cars tracked often...to save on consumable costs.
