Who has installed the Brembo GTP's?

About a month ago 2 folks posted that they were installing GTP's. Any feedback?

I have installed them and ran them at one race so far. I opted for the GTP-LW since the regular GTP's are complete overkill for most 911's.

First impressions are great! I ran them at Sebring and had no problems all weekend. The modulation and pedal feel is great. The kit is very well done except for the fact that the bleed hose they supply doesn't fit... nice thing about the LW too is that the rotors are the same front to rear. They tend to have more rear bias than other kits but it worked out perfect. it seems to go against conventional wisdom with 911's but the feel of the car was very stable under trail braking and braking in general. The car had much less of that standing on it's nose feel.

Cheers, James
