... where did you get the Stoptech rotors for the GT? Everywhere I have been said they are for the regular PT and not ours. [:I]
To answer your last statement: StopTech "Big Brake" system USED TO BE listed for N/A PT's only, but if you visit the website now, the Big Brake kit, part # 82-240-2300, 83-240-2300, or 83-240-4300, is listed for BOTH N/A and Turbo. But there are no direct replacement rotors listed for either the N/A or GT. However, StopTech does list direct replacement (slotted or drilled) rotors for the SRT4 and it appears to be the correct dimensions (280mm X 28mm)for the front and slightly larger on the rear: 270mm X 12mm (SRT4) vs 260mm X 12mm (GT). Note: the stock calipers used on SRT4 and GT are the same (57mm single piston front and 36mm single piston rear). If purplept didn't have any rotor alignment (hat depth) or caliper clearance problems (larger rotor hitting the caliper) with the rear rotors, I don't see why you couldn't use those rotors on your GT.

I find it interesting the Wilwood's Big Brake system, part # 140-6376, is listed for both the PT and SRT4: http://www.wilwood.com/BrakeKits/Pages/05/index.asp
May have to replace your rims though with 18's or 19's with any Big Brake system. The StopTech caliper clearance I seen on a PT with 19" rims was about a 1/4-3/8".
