Early 997 Brakes have no grab

Took car off truck from east coast. Brakes were horrible. 40K miles Manual No track time. Mechanic said they were rusty from sitting with little use for 2 years. Rotors were only 1/16" lip. Pads 20%
New rotors and pads. Good stuff. NO DIFFERENCE. I can slam brakes on so hard ABS triggers and the cars comes SLOWLY to a stop. Like it has no grabbing power. Many many Porsches over 45 years but never a problem like this.
Any ideas.
Thanks
