Surface Transforms

[ab80]

Hi all

I've done a search but there's little feedback on the forum:

Has anyone any experience of running Surface Transforms for any period of time, including on the road?

Thanks

Speak to Matt at Fearnsport (Gen 1 997 GT3) and Chris W (Cayman GT4) on here.

Thanks Slippydiff. I'd read your thread with interest but thought that ST's product might have been developed a bit further in the intervening years. I'll try the others you've pointed me to. :thumbsup:

I have a set arriving early next week but won't have time to fit them for a couple of weeks ...

They will be bedded-in with a couple of hundred miles of city and country lane traffic, and then I'll need to give them some pasty to cure the resins in the pads --- followed by a proper cooling cycle ---

I'm told that they really do benefit from care in the final "curing" process once fitted to the car ...

Hi Chris. Is this to replace PCCBs?

[ChrisW.]

No, it's so that I can take off the PCCB's whilst they are still in perfect condition ...

The GT4 discs are the same size as those on the 991 GT3RS which delivers 100bhp more and 100 Kg more mass (round numbers !) ... so I don't anticipate problems but ...

I did ruin a set of 350mm PCCB's on my CR (at 30+k miles) ... the ST's are half the price of a full set of replacement PCCB's (round numbers again !!) ... and when I eventually sell the GT4 it will most probably be returned to standard and I'll use the ST's on the replacement (GT4RS ??)

I shall be very interested to see how they perform ...

Thanks very much. Please do keep us posted on how you get on!
