380 mm PCCB's

I'm not sure if it's poor form to post about Ebay auctions or not... but since I'm in no way affiliated with the seller, I hope it doesn't hurt. If you search for item #190203071521 on the Ebay home page (yeah, I'm too lazy to post a link) it'll take you to the auction (on German Ebay).

The Cayman versions are 350mm but I can't see why these wouldn't fit. Of course, I'm quite ignorant when it comes to these sorts of things.

I realize the paradox of these little wonders. They are only superior to steel under the kind of heavy use almost exclusively eperienced at the track. Track drivers, on the other hand, tend to be leery of replacement costs in the thousands for damagable wear items.

They've almost been relegated to fancy break dust minimizers for poseurs. I happen to think that they do that job rather well, and the yellow looks oh so nice

Heck at a cost, per our founder, of $6K for each PCCB, this eBay offering is a real steal at less than $5,900 for TWO.

I think Herman in SA put these on his 3.8L converted Cayman but as I recall not without great difficulty.

Remember that the advantage of PCCB is not only lack of fade when warm but a significant reduction in unsprung wieght. That translates into superior handling.
