[s-cars] Correct Big Red Part Number + RotorHat Question

Igor,

Assuming you mean 323x30 (and not 25) S8 rotor, then no it is not the
same rotor offset as the Bira S6x hat. At least I don't think so. If so,
it is pure serendipity.

I specified the S6x hat offset to mate the 993tt caliper + rs2 bracket
combo to the 993tt rotor (which, as you know is 32mm wide). Then, since
I wanted to use the 996tt caliper with this rotor, Bira just drew up the
custom calper bracket accordingly. Hence, one hat / rotor combo (that
has a pretty deep offset for great wheel fitment) that works with two
different caliper / bracket combos: 1) 993tt caliper & stock RS2
bracket, or 2) 996tt caliper & Bira S6x bracket.

I thouht this was a sehr gutes idea on my part.

Too bad Sierra Motorsports was never able to deliver on their $250 hats,
that would have made for a killer kit when paired with RS2 bracket +
993tt caliper & rotor.
