Are these in mass production to public or just one-off for fun?

Mass Production? Few things are in "mass production" for the 3rd gen, but this can certainly be duplicated. I havent the time or the desire to try to make this for the 3rd gen community but A-Spec has been authorized to further market this kit if there is a demand.
The fronts are 356mmx32mm and the rear is 328x29mm, the same champ car rotors used in M2s AP kit. These are surely overkill for street use but they sure look nice. The goldish hue is from double heat treating the rotors. I would suggest the 929 master cylinder, as the front calipers have 50.1 cm of piston area, 20 % more than stock. This kit has NO EMERGENCY OR PARKING BRAKE so dont ask, It just cant be done at a reasonable cost.
More info to come

I would be guessing as to the fitment, The offset is going to be critical, especially the rear, it is realy tight. as far as diameter, I think it will fit. The front diameter of the rotor is 14" It might make it. the offset in the front isnt to critical, there is plenty of room. Take an inside measurement of your 17 inch wheel and shoot it over.

Michel,
Wont be in Naples any time soon, Im not with that company anymore. M2? well, They did provide some of this kit, but mostly they provided obstacles. Anyway, Its finished and I am happy All I need now is the 35/40 or just plain GT40 from A-Spec and all will be well with the world. I trust all is well with you and yours.

Yeah, things are well. I've already replaced my rotors once on the AP kit. Not too difficult actually. Car is doing well, still debating the three rotor thingymabob. Found out today that all my exhaust bolts from the exhaust manifold to the turbine inlet AND all my bolts on my downpipe to midpipe were loose. Lemme tell ya, that hurts performance. I still managed to pull on an R1 (highway) and rip a Viper GTS by about six car lengths :-) Tightened everything up this morning. Big difference. Anyway, don't want to thread hijack...send me a PM and let me know what's up!
