Brembo GT or PCCB

I already have a Turbo S with PCCB... but i want to upgrade to the Brembos just for the shear fact that under heavy braking the calipers light up white... but other than that which one is a better setup... Especially since new rotors on the Turbo are like 2k a rotor. THANKS

You will have to be pushing your brakes very very hard in order for them to light up. I don;t even believe that it would be possible in a street scenerio. Your brakes also mave much less rotating mass. The braking power of the two is almost identical. The PCCB rotors are expensixe but you replace them about half as ofter as normal brakes.

How much better, if any, could the GTRs be on the street?
