Rotor Replacement

I am replacing my rotors on an 84 911 with upgraded turbo calipers. This is a dedicated DE car.
I have run VCI rotors for the past two years but was curious if there was another brand/mfg. that someone might recommend. I am running Pagid Yellows. Car weighs 2200 lb. without the driver....3.6 converbsion. Thanks!

Which size VCI/Coleman rotors are you using, the 12 in. or 12.75? I and some others have used the Wilwood HD or Wilwood GT 12.19 in. x 1.25 in. rotors with excellent results. Wilwood makes a rotor in both sizes to mimic the VCI rotors. However your VCI hats won't bolt up to the Wilwood rotors. So you'll need to have new hats made.

tHE 12.75". They are the VCI model #3001 and are non-floating.

The Wilwood GT 48V is the one you could use in either of the sizes listed below. There are four rotors because they are directional.
