Try AWE Tuning. They are a board sponsor. Talk to Mike or Todd (Owner). Todd has EXTENSIVE experience with the kit as he had it on the company's 996TT and he tracked it all the time.

I just put them on my car.

The e-brake does work. We maintain it on every kit we do

the GTR kit is awesome. as lignt as it can get for steel brakes. the braking power is much improved from stock. i always tell people if they can appreciate the power increase from a stock turbo to a stage II turbo then the GTR kit is just like that in terms of braking power.

make ur wheel will clear if u're running 18''s. also the tire u have is important as well. u need them to handle the brakes.

I've done every single brake kit out there and there really is nothing as light with a steel rotor (the calipers are the lightest 8 or even 4-piston Porsche/Brembo caliper I've weighed). All the ALMS drivers that have driven my car (even the ones that spun) LOVED the brakes. They are true race brakes and not a bling street kit at all. They are derived from the ALMS RS6', Cup Cars and so forth. You can see them sometimes on these cars. There are about 4 different pad options ranging from CRAZY aggressive to good street. Arling summed it up.. if you can feel the upgrade in power from a stage II then you will feel something like that sensation when stopping with these. At the track they just last, lap after lap after lap. No fade.

With the GT2 offset? It should fit then. Look at our projects page because there are some cars (Turbos) with the GTR brakes on there with those same BBS motorsport wheels.
