[s-cars] Really Big Brakes

14" rotors?
Child's play.

The 15" Porsche Motorsports units sitting in my basement are the shit.
Mated to a pair of 6 piston Monoblocs they would be the ultimate.

The arms race will produce larger diameter rotors and calipers with more
pistons, but for my money the hardware on the Le Mans GT class winning
Porsche (the above rotor) and the 996 GT3R (the above caliper) would be
the ultimate.

The design and the accoutrements of that 6 piston are superior to the
brembo 8 piston unit.

Now, maybe those Cayenne front brakes would go nicely as a rear upgrade.

They should rename the non-turbo Caenne to The Paprika.
