Just picked up a 4.0RS

Interesting that the 4.0 came with standard red calipers not the ceramic yellows, I assume some owners prefer steel discs?
It came with whichever the buyer ordered. Hit the search function. Ceramics are very unpopular with Porsche owners who do significant amounts of track work. They wear out after not that much more use than steel and cost roughly as much as a new Ford Focus to replace. It has been rehashed all over the place so best no to relight the blue touch paper here though.

I have the fab speed bypass on mine - sounds awesome especially when unplugged
Interesting. I've had one with an exhaust flap bypass switch - OEM exhaust but the flap can be switched open all the time...sounds loud!
Is yours something similar or a separate bypass pipe/back box?
(PS: did you have a black 996 GT3 many years ago? I may have had it sometime after you....gone now)

Mine is just a bypass for the rear box, but no bypass switch. With the fabspeed bypass on its around 110db just under 5k revs.I've had one with an exhaust flap bypass switch - OEM exhaust but the flap can be switched open all the time...sounds loud!

I vouch for that!
Mate i miss that white rs of yours....why did u sell!note: indeed the 7.1RS was the best track tool I've ever had, the most reliable and cheapest to run! what an amazing car, do actually miss it now that I've tested several other toys: it was the most practical toy by far! Superb at Spa, easy daily hack as well.
