"{How can less unsprung weight be ever 'overkill'?
As stated earlier, I just used the (smaller) rear ones on the front, so the brake action in that respect is not likely to be overkill either...}"
Ooops, I mean too much brake, not too light. I think the light is AWESOME, especially on a light car like ours, the weight reduction alone is reason to do the conversion you are doing. It's more brake than you'll ever use, but less weight is ALWAYS good thing. What I thought was overkill for both reasons was that guy that was putting Cayenne brakes on his chassis, those suckers are heavy AND too much brake!
I do have to say though, the thickness of the rotors should be close to minimum spec that Porsche quotes, if they are too thin they actually could shatter. I saw footage of a Corvette C6R explosion of the rotor, it wasn't pretty...
