Questions about GT3 PCCB brakes...

I'm looking for a 2004 GT3 and I found a few of them that have PCCB. I've heard some pretty bad stories about these brakes. I'm going to track the hell outta this car and I don't have an endless pocket of change. So should I avoid getting a GT3 with PCCB? Also, are these brakes worth any money to someone else? Say I find a smoking deal on a GT3 that has PCCB, do you think someone would be willing to swap 'em out with theirs? Is this possible? Is this an even exchange?

don't let the PCCB's sway your purchasing. you can always just swap out the rotors if like. Wanna swap?

I'd definitely consider the swap... I found one that has PCCB that I might consider. I'll keep you in the know if it happens.

I looked up balaclava on wikipedia and I thought the image was pretty badass.

I might have to rob a bank to get the GT3, so I think it's fitting.

I'm considering one right now that has PCCB. The car has 20k on the clock. I'm not worried so much about the ride, but I wonder the condition of the rotors...

Looks more like a terrorist.
