997 TTS PCCB to Iron Rotor conversion?

997 TTS PCCB to Iron Rotor conversion?
I have my Turbo S on order (December build) and I'm planning my mods so, a couple of questions for People Who Know:
You can replace the PCCB rotors on the 997.2 Turbo S with Brembo iron rotors from Vivid Racing - fronts are 102.9008A and rears are 202.8004A, correct?
What are the correct Pagid RS-29 front and rear pads for this rotor/caliper combo? I thought 2707 for the fronts, but the Cup rotor, which has the same diameter as these Brembo rotors, uses a different Pagid. And 8006 for the rears?
Does Porsche, or anyone else, make a street pad for this rotor/caliper combo? I''ll be swapping to the Pagid Yellows for track days, so the street pads can be true, American-quiet street pads.
Thank you in advance, and Happy Thanksgiving!

We do have the street pads as well. It is the same 6piston caliper for the 997.1 or 997.2. If your going to get track pads then go with the RS19 yellow and RS14 black in the rear for more bite. You will love the combo

Here are the options for the Brembo Iron Rotors - http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/a...rotors&x=0&y=0

Another option to consider is the Stoptech DRK set up for these cars.
We have had a ton of success with these rotors for the entire Porsche model range, we also run them on our World Challenge cars. (same exact rotors we run on the race cars)
As far as pads go for the track, I would highly recommend the Endless pads as we have worked with them over the past year in ALMS and had amazing success.
Feel free to drop me an email for more info.

Fabryce, wondering if you still stand by these comments you made on the 1st page of this thread a few years ago regarding PCCB's and track use. I understand not letting the pads get below 50% is a big key in their longevity
Would be great if you were still seeing positive results with PCCB.

Absolutely!
When PCCB's are you used correctly they are amazing. Its the "use" that kills them and just like any other consumable item that wears you will eventually need to replace them.
From race cars that are allowed to run them such as European Cup cars, LMP cars or F1 they are serviceable and consumable items.

Thank you for the info on the Stoptech rotors. I've already ordered the Brembos, but I'll keep the DRK in mind.
The other mod I'll be making right away is replacing the springs with your GMG WC Sport lowering springs. I like the fact that you took the time and effort to match them to the stock PASM dampers.
I would like to ask you about your experience with the PCCB rotors. I know they are better, and I'd really like to use them for the track. Of course they wear out; everything does. What is comes down to is how often? Can you give me a comparison with iron rotors? I haven't read anyone who has tracked their car extensively enough with both to make this comparison. If you replaced iron rotors once every 20 track days, how often would you be replacing PCCBs?
