996 GT3RS PCCB inspection

[phatgixer]

I am in the process of buying an RS and it is fitted with the ceramic brakes. Visually they look fine after a cursory glance. How do I tell if they are in order or if I am about to cop a large bill?

Thanks.

LOL to all the ribbing about the seeing the error of my ways etc etc..

I've always said that the RS is probably a superior car to the CSL, just that it is rarely driven faster and the CSL represents significant better value for money.

But, I couldn't help myself, and after a year of not having a track car I have plunged in and bought the most obvious car missing from my CV. Looking forward to it.

Thanks for the photos and advice. The Alcon / Brembo conversion seems like amazing value. Is there a catch?

Angus,



So no new M3 then ??

I still have a couple of E36 Racers in various stages of repair...

M3s should have a maximum 6 cylinders. BMW have never made a decent V8.

Glenn chasing? Other way round methinks...

Always liked 911s, as long as they weren't daft colours..
