Yep, that was my first thought as well. Did you run the stockers?

Non track version. I experience no fade and still
very confident in my braking, but the rotor feels
and looks like sand paper.


with these rotors i thought the pad would be
ruined not the rotor

Wow those rotors are torn to $hit. What year is your TT (and the PCCB's)? Are they an early version or a new version? The early ones are notorious for getting destroyed by even one track day.

Porsche recommends using the green pads from PMNA if your tracking . I have a set used for sale with only 1/2 track day on the pads.


You pads probably look like this.

Boris, yes they will fit the GT2/3 rear calipers.

I am now using steel 350mm cup rotors front and 330mm rears. Even though the rotors are different sizes in the rear the pad sizes are the same.

I know some GT3 owners that have PCCBs are running steel fronts and pccb rears and seem to be OK. Not sure about long term.

If you plan on switching to steel cup rotors for both front and rear, the rear calipers need to be changed out to the GT3 steel calipers due to the steel rear rotors are 330mm.

I believe AP or another company mfgrs a 2piece 350mm rotors as replacement rear for PCCB owners looking to switch to steel rotors will only need to switch out rotors only.

6088TTS, you can use the same yellow P90 pads you have for the PCCB's with the steel rotors.
