I was looking thru the 914-6 competion parts manual to check on vented rear caliper rotors insead of using spacers on hub or washers on the caliper. The part number for those is 901.352.041.12. So I called Porsche and they said they were available from Germany at $275 each.

Does anybody have a cross refference to Zimmerman rotors? So I could see if they are available at a much lower price? 901.352.041.14 is the standard 911 rear vented rotor from 69-on so I am guessing that the .12 makes these special.

Any comments? Thanks, Mark.

The GT rotor has a different offset that users of the 911 rear vented rotor need spacers to compensate for.

When using a 914/4 spaced caliper, the 911 rear vented rotor needs to be turned down in diameter to have clearance. ( and just because it may fit when cold it may not work when hot.) There is no benefit to the larger diameter, so you might as well lose the weight and inertia.
