I have girodisc’s on my 981 cayman, they are fantastic rotors, I started off with DS2500 pads but I used up >50% of all the pads in one track weekend at road Atlanta, I’ve got another event this weekend but I’m running DS1.11 this time around.
Absolutely love my girodiscs. I’m on DS2500s which its time for an upgrade to a more aggressive pad, but they’ve held up through quite some heat lol.
Went from OEM to Girodisc 350mm. All street, no track. By far the best upgrade I have done to my 991.2 C4.
Go with the Giro's and leave them on permanently. Better cooling and braking and cheaper to replace just the discs (2 piece rotor) on future replacement.
I put the Power Stop branded drilled/slotted rotors and Akebono ProAct pads on my 8th gen front and back. Brake performance definitely improved although the ceramics are definitely noisier than oem. Overall for the price id recommend it.
I do a lot of driving. I prefer my Powerstop drilled and slotted rotors with powerstop ceramic pads.
I'm a big fan of power stop. They're awesome and if you get the coated ones they don't rust
I've used these before. I wouldn't go with anything not coated. No complaints.
My stock rotors (metallic pads) lasted 9 years and a track day. My ebay drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads)lasted 9 years and a handful of track days; they didn't crack the chamfer was just looking iffy. My latest set is from Amazon, powerstop branded drilled/slotted rotors (ceramic pads); have survived 1 track day, 1 light hdpe day and are on year 3. If you get drilled (any brand), you need to inspect the rotors more often.
I did the powerstop drilled slotted rotors thing on my Outback 3.6 which I’d run on the heavy side on family trips. The Gen 4 Outback’s are known to have poor brake performance and I thought it would be a smart upgrade for extra margin. In the end I wouldn’t recommend. More noise, faster pad wear, premature cracking around the drilled holes on the rotors, questionable performance upgrade.
