Found this one which works for CCB and the calipers looks better in this position in my opinion.

Uses Porsche GT3 calipers and is 120.000 Taiwan Dollars without the disc. Bit expensive in my opinion or? 🤷🏼‍♂️

Could you find out piston area vs stock caliper to see if there will be brake bias ? He didnt respond to me. Caliper definitely looks like not china 😔

What do you mean with China?


I have no idea what 65D and 80D mean? But I doubt it’s a smaller pad?

Ok it is smaller. But looks better and hopefully brakes better with 4-pot.

This is gt4 caliper, just the picture angle. They have much smaller diameter pistons, your bias will shift forward significantly. It will work with ccb but wont with your standard steel rotor (it needs thicker rotor to work properly). Definitely keep us posted , how much is the cost ?

Ok. Not we are talking about something I don’t know anything about.
You wouldn’t be afraid of doing it with CCB?

And he text me is GT3 caliber. If it’s a GT4 I guess it’s a smaller caliper than GT3?

Inhave limited experience with gt4 and no experience with gt3, but it is not gt3 in the picture. Ideally youd want to keep your brake bias close to factory, gt4 will affect it some, it is also a directional caliper, so one piston is smaller than the other. Gt3/4 is not about size, its more about production, amount of pistons,i am worried that he doesn’t know it is gt4 but that happens sometimes

It’s this caliper they use. Don’t know why it’s another on the picture, maybe prototype.

These are different calipers obviously, not sure whats going on man. The gt4 caliper is very flimsy, it doesnt come with cross bridge for structural rigidity, wanted to mention from my personal experience is it is very challenging to create a bracket for a certain caliper, so if they post picture of one, and claim kits come with another, id ask for a bunch of install pictures (bracket, brake lines, what pads etc etc) i would also inquire about pad size/radial depth, availability, and ofcourse piston area compared to oem. If they cannot respond to this (i am pretty confident they wont) then youre up to fitment issues, brake bias shift, rotor availability challenges etc etc. hope this works out, i am not hating on this kit, i just hope everything is safe and theres a lot of work, time, research and data is put in the production.
Could you tell me whats the cost on the set up ?

Brake pads are sized for the calipers not the rotor discs.

Two pad size will be offered:

Standard size for standard brake (iron rotors) - As shown in the pic, the pad is hidden inside the caliper)

Oversize for ccb rotors - The pad stick outside the caliper body approx. 5mm

Not true. Yes, the pad shape has to properly fit the caliper pad guides. However, the pad radial depth (PRD), and inner pad radius, have to match the length of the rotor outer radius (OR) minus the rotor inner radius (IR) as well as have a proper pad IR to match the rotor IR. Otherwise you may end up using a pad that does not fully cover the rotor annulus depth or a pad that overhangs the rotor OR and/or IR.

As an example, the PFC 7767 is identical to the PFC 7768 except the 7768 has a larger inner radius and a shorter PRD (49 mm for 7767, 41 mm for 7768). A 7767 can be converted to a 7768 by enlarging the inner radius (most manufacturers will do this for you).
