So, what's the verdict on PCCBs for hard track driving w/ a 2S (and I'm thinking of an '09, just got rid of my '05 at end of lease)? In particular, I'd love to hear about the experience of someone who was traditionally hard on steel brakes (read frequent pad and rotor replacements) who has gone on to aggressively track a car w/ PCCBs. I'm confident that they will perform better, that the lower unsprung weight will be a benefit, and I think I can get comfortable with the initial cost, but if I have to shell out for new rotors even 1/2 as often as I go through steel ones I don't think I'll be very psyched. The idea of getting the PCCBs and removing the ceramic rotors and replacing w/ steel also doesn't seem like a great idea to me from a cost / benefit perspective.
Thanks
I would love to hear from someone that answers exactly fiske's question
I had to change my front steel rotors at 45'000 km and my back rotors at 55'000 km. ( due to my heavy braking on tracks)
I am very tempted by the PCCB, but would not get them if there is a slight chance I will need to replace the rotors during the time I own the car.
Please, any hard track users , give us your experience with PCCB ..
