    OEM rotors are cross drilled. The brakes are simply too small and have no ducting to reduce heat. If I kept my 360 I would have retrofitted the CS carbon brakes as I already had the 19 inch CS wheels.

    I drove a 930 ONCE and didn't like it because the seat was too restrictive for a fat bastard like me and the turbo lag was weird ..... it was a long time ago

    I know they are good cars but no special feeling , they're like refrigerators, great for keeping things cold but I can't get attached to them :)

    Drilled disks get rid of water, not heat. Heat is your enemy.

    True. As much as liked driving the 911, it just isn't a "Ferrari"

    You do realise that Carsales have to list the Dealer license number? It's at the very bottom in fineprint. I entered the number via the QLD govt site and it came up with this

    Eurodrive Tours
    61 Logan River Road, Beenleigh
    QLD 4207
