Hi Everyone,
Has anyone here gone with the Suncoast Boxster S front brake upgrade kit for a 99 986? They sell the rotors, calipers, pads and even 2l of Super Blue for 1400 bucks. It is listed as a direct add on.
So,
1) Has anyone done this?
2) Will stock 17" rims work? (I think they will as the 996 had 17" available with these same rotors AFAIK).
3) Was the upgrade worth it for the track?

I am considering this as this winter I might do a power upgrade (either Jake Raby or 3.4/3.6 route).

TIA
