Installation Notes and Quality Assurance

Verify rotor condition, caliper hardware, and wear sensor requirements before installation. Some listed Porsche applications require a wear sensor sold separately, and several fitments exclude ceramic composite brakes or Turbo Look configurations; confirm the exact vehicle and brake package before ordering. Z23-917 is designed for front or rear positions only where listed in the fitment data.
