Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

23 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Check out these rotors..! 2+ times the life of the factory cross drilled rotors, better performance. We have tested them in race conditions for the last 6 months and have outlasted the factory ones and way better performance. We recomend Pagid Black RS-14 pads for track use. Introductory price of $395 per set for the front.

POST 2Original post

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Ray, The Non Boxster S set front and rear are $410.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Sorry, that copy was from the GT3 rotors page. Not less money, but much better value over the long run and preformance.

POST 6Original post

Quotes source post: 5542247

cool!... what do you suggest at the rear with your rotors?

POST 7Original post

The only time I used RS14 was for my rears on the RSA but never tried them for fronts. They wont work with RS19-29??

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

They will work just fine with the 19 or 29 compound...

POST 9Original post

Rick, I think I speak for many of us (esp those of us who track quite a bit) that it's nice to see a quality slotted alternative on the market. However I wish the prices were just a touch more competative. The price you quoted Ray for the Boxster set is right in line with what the OEM rotors cost for that car, on the GT3's you're cheaper than the OEM rotors, yet the price for the standard 996 is nearly twice of the OEM rotors? Andy

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Andy, Thanks for letting me know... I wish I could make the 996/997 Boxster rotors more competetivly priced, but fact is the stock ones are sooo inexpensive compared to the GT3 and Boxster standard rotors that the value get's tougher to handle. But, it's still a great value if you put the #'s to work, 2.5+ times the life, end the hastle of changing/watching the rotors all weekend.. If the demand is going to be there, I can produce more at 1 time and probably lower the end cost around $45 or so..but let's see how much demand there is.. Rick

POST 11Original post

Rick, Do these make any noise when driving? Also is there any benefit to not extending the slots all the way to the edge of the rotor like some of the other manuf do? Thanks, -Paul

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The slot all the way to the end is always a source of stress crack failure....these do not crack there...

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

.5 lbs. lighter than OEM....

POST 16 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

In stock and ready to ship..group buy discounts available..!

POST 17Original post

Rick how would these work on a street only car? Would they last longer than a oem 996 setup? What street pads would you recommend

POST 18Original post

Rick, do you have rotors for the 996 Turbo/C4S?

POST 19Original post

I would be very interested in a set of fronts if they are ok for a car that is a DD and is going to track occasionally. If so, I too would like to know what street pad would be recommended.

POST 20 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys, Sorry, no turbo/C4S rotors yet... These rotors are as good as stock for the street, look great and will last much longer.... I've had good luck with the Pagid Blue for the street...

POST 21Original post

Funny. but after 34 years of driving, I FINALLY get a car with rotors that have cool cast cooling holes front & rear (Porsche rotors are not drilled..the holes are cast in, and then machined, stronger that way), a look I've always loved, and nowI'm told that they are not as good as the slotted ones....I'll keep my Porsche ones, but thanks for the info!

POST 22Original post

Bringing this topic back up because I forgot I wanted to get these rotors since I decided against the PFC rotors. However, I just ordered stock pads and was wondering if they would work, or should I send them back and buy the Pagid blue? (Aren't they the same, kinda ) Thanks again!

POST 23Original post

Anybody end up using these? I'm shopping for rotors now but these are a little pricey.
