Yes they took some machining and an adaptor, but the cost of Porsche rotors is why I looked in a different direction.

I just sold the last one of my kits using the Porshe rotor to clear out my inventory.

Thanks for sharing,

Jim
One would think that, after all these years, there would be a plethora of after-market suppliers of lower cost rotors to fit Porsches, thereby somewhat alleviating the cost issue. This could be attractive, should it be a better technical solution - especially if the OEM calipers could be re-used by inserting a properly machined spacer between the two halves of each caliper.
