Upgrade the braking performance and thermal capacity of your Porsche with the GiroDisc 340mm 2-Piece Front Brake Rotor Kit. Rather than simply replacing the factory 317mm rotors with another stock-size disc, GiroDisc increases the front rotor diameter to 340mm, providing greater braking leverage and increased capacity to manage heat during aggressive street or track driving. The two-piece design combines GiroDisc's proprietary cast-iron friction rings with lightweight 6061-T6 aluminum hats, creating a performance-focused replacement that retains the factory calipers and overall braking system architecture. Curved internal vanes act as a centrifugal pump to move cooling air through the rotor, while GiroDisc's floating mounting system allows the iron disc to expand independently as temperatures increase. Included caliper spacers and longer mounting bolts reposition the factory calipers for the larger rotor diameter, eliminating the need for a complete big-brake kit. Once installed, future servicing is also more economical because the aluminum hats can be retained and only the cast-iron friction rings need to be replaced.

Larger 340mm rotor diameter increases braking leverage and cooling capacity compared with the factory 317mm front rotor
Two-piece construction combines lightweight 6061-T6 aluminum hats with replaceable cast-iron friction rings for a performance-focused alternative to one-piece OEM rotors
Racing-derived curved internal vanes pump cooling air through the rotor, improving heat management during repeated hard braking
GiroDisc's 10-pin floating mounting system allows axial and radial movement as the rotor heats and expands while helping the disc remain centered between the brake pads
Anti-noise spring washers help control the cold rattle commonly associated with fully floating brake rotors without preventing proper thermal expansion
Supplied caliper spacers and longer bolts allow the larger 340mm rotors to work with the factory front calipers, delivering a meaningful brake upgrade without requiring a complete big-brake kit
