GiroDisc Racing Brakes & Technologies A1-156 Girodisc 2pc 410mm Front Brake Rotors (OEM PCCB) $2,707.00
 Girodisc Porsche 410mm Front Rotors The Girodisc 410mm Front Rotors for Porsche 991 and 992 models deliver exceptional braking performance and longevity without the downsides of heavy carbon ceramics. Designed as a direct replacement for the OE discs, these rotors maintain factory brake bias and ABS efficiency while allowing a broader range of high-performance pad choices. Lightweight, Track-Proven Replacement Rotors This system is a direct replacement for the factory iron rotors, provided you use the same pad shape found on 991/992 GT3 and Turbo models equipped with iron brakes. The smaller annulus (pad swept height) versus PCCB pads reduces weight and expands your pad selection options, while still delivering exceptional heat management under demanding track conditions. A1-156 Girodisc 2pc 410mm Front Brake Rotor Features The central hat section is machined from U.S.-sourced 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum for maximum strength and minimal unsprung mass. The rotor rings are made from Girodisc’s proprietary cast iron, poured and fully machined in-house in the USA. Each rotor features a curved vane design that acts as a centrifugal pump to move cooling air efficiently through the disc, reducing heat fade and extending pad life. The floating mount system uses 12 high-strength alloy steel drive pins, cadmium plated for corrosion resistance and secured with class 12.9 cap screws and hardened washers. Anti-noise spring washers allow the rotors to expand under heat while eliminating the rattle typically associated with floating systems. This floating design also lets the rotor self-center between the pads for consistent pedal feel and reduced drag. Once the Girodisc system is installed, future rotor service is simple—only the iron rotor rings need replacement when worn, keeping your long-term costs and downtime low. A1-156 Girodisc 2pc 410mm Front Brake Rotors FAQs: Do these rotors fit PCCB-equipped cars? Yes, but you must use the smaller pad shape from 991/992 GT3 or Turbo models originally fitted with iron brakes. The PCCB pads are too large for these discs. Will these rotors affect my ABS or brake bias? No, Girodisc designs their rotors to maintain the factory brake balance and ABS performance of your Porsche. How much lighter are these than OEM rotors? The weight varies by application, but Girodisc rotors typically save several pounds per corner, reducing rotational and unsprung weight for sharper handling and acceleration. Do I need special hardware to install them? No modifications are needed. The Girodisc rotors bolt directly to your car and work with your OEM calipers and mounting hardware. Can I reuse the aluminum hats when replacing rotors? Yes — the system is designed so that when the iron rings reach end of life, you can simply install new rings onto the existing hats. Upgrade your Porsche’s stopping power and feel with the precision-engineered Girodisc 410mm Front Rotors — built for drivers who demand race-level performance on both street and track.

The Carbotech CT1741 brake pads offer world-class stopping power across a range of compounds engineered for HPDE, club racing, time trials, and daily driving. Whether you're shaving tenths at a national event or building consistency during weekend track days, there's a Carbotech compound tailored to your performance goals. Manufactured in the USA using Carbotech’s proprietary ceramic and metallic formulations, these pads deliver unmatched modulation, rotor friendliness, and fade resistance. Friction materials have evolved significantly over the years. Brake pads were originally made with organic ingredients such as asbestos and carbon, held together by a strong resin. Most brake pads sold today are considered semi-metallic, semi-metallic brake pads use brass, copper, and steel wool shavings held together by a resin. Unfortunately, the main drawback about the use of steel strands, iron, graphite, and small amounts of filer and friction modifiers (used to provide strength and conduct heat away from the rotors) is that the metal shavings and iron must rub against steel rotors every time the brakes are applied. This generates more noise and is a lot more abrasive on the rotors. It also creates corrosive dust that can damage your braking system as well as the paint on your wheels and car. Friction materials that contain Ceramic Kevlar formulations have become recognized for their desirable blend of traits. This allows the Ceramic Kevlar pads to handle higher brake temperatures with less heat fade, and provide faster recovery after heavy braking. It also reduces brake dust and makes wheel maintenance easier! Ceramic Kevlar compounds extend brake life compared to most other semi-metallic and organic materials, and at the same time they outlast other premium pad materials by a significant margin, without compromising in noise control, pad life, and all around braking performance. The CT1741 shape fits a variety of high-performance applications, making it a go-to solution for drivers looking for track day brake pads that match their skill level and intensity.

Which Carbotech compound is best for daily driving? 1521 is ideal for spirited street use with minimal dust and noise.. 2. What’s the best compound for beginner HPDE drivers? XP8 is a great starting point for advanced HPDE, offering strong bite and fade resistance without being overly aggressive. 3. Can I mix Carbotech compounds front and rear? Yes, many drivers use a more aggressive compound in the front (e.g., XP12) and a slightly less aggressive one in the rear (e.g., XP10) to fine-tune balance. 4. Are Carbotech pads hard on rotors? No. All Carbotech compounds are known for being rotor-friendly, helping reduce rotor wear and operating costs. 5. Which compound is best for endurance racing? RP2 is engineered specifically for long-distance events where pad and rotor life are just as important as torque output. 6. Do Carbotech pads require special bedding procedures? Yes. A proper bedding-in process is critical for optimal performance. Carbotech provides detailed bedding instructions with every set of pads. Carbotech Brake Pad Bedding Procedures The bedding process transfers friction material from the pads into the pores of the brake rotor. It also matches the microscopic contours of the pads and rotors to increase surface contact. Proper bedding of pads & rotors will result in greater performance, longer pad life & less rotor wear. Failure to properly bed in your pads could lead to friction materials chunking and breaking up. This could also lead to overheating your pads and causing them to glaze over resulting in the car not being able to stop or slow fast enough. All new brake pads require a bedding process. The proper way to bed your brake pads and brake discs (rotors) is to bed them on the racetrack, NOT on the street. Start this process by pumping your brakes a few times to assure proper installation. Once on track perform several moderate (medium) near stops (to a very slow rolling speed) to thoroughly warm up the pads and rotors. This should take 1-2 laps. This allows a thin layer of the pad material to be transferred into the micro-grooves of the rotor. After the pads/rotors are warm, perform a series of hard near stops (to a slow rolling speed) until some brake fade is felt. This process should take about 2-4 laps (depending on the track). Once this occurs, then stay off the brakes (as much as possible) and bring your car into the pits/paddock to completely cool. Do not lock the tires during this operation. Allow brake pads and/or rotors cool down to ambient temperatures; no less than 30 minutes. The total bedding procedure should not take more than 5-6 laps or about 10-15 minutes. Failure to properly bed in your pads could cause friction material to chunk and break up resulting in poor pad performance and pad life. Improper bedding can also lead to overheating your pads and causing them to glaze over, resulting in the car not being able to stop or slow properly.
