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.

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

Hi all, Sorry to invade the 996 forum for my old '87, but I need a junk rear rotor to do some test fitting on my car for brake swapping. Anybody who's got one lying around, i'll gladly pay you shipping + a bit for your trouble. Thanks, Kevin ktlspider at comcast (.) net

POST 2Original post

Kevin, That was not nice!!! Calling 996 rotors junk! J/K! Good luck with your search.

POST 3Original post

Damn I just drop off 2 sets at the local recycle.... if noone chimes in, PM me and I'll see what I can do....

POST 4Original post

Hey Red, nice timing! First the clock spring, now the rotors! Are you having a bad day?

POST 5Original post

yeah.... its been a weird day for me... lets just say I've had a WTF sorta day...

POST 6Original post

If your still looking I will keep my eyes open, I am a tech at a dealer... Ill see what we have in the scrap bin. Mark

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Still looking. I actually have a friend of a friend who's also a Porsche tech and he keeps skunking me- been asking him for months. A 996 has to have come in for a brake job in the last 3 months....... Mark, If you have one in the scrap bin, please do let me know. A post office flat rate shipping box (watch out, they aren't always flat rate due to weight) should be the easiest way to send it. Or I can give you my Fed Ex acct. number. thanks, Kevin
