[. . . ] The energy-absorbing steering column is a key safety feature since, in the event of a front-end impact, it enables a deformation path of 100 mm. The standard three-spoke GT2 steering wheel features manual height and reach adjustment. Used in conjunction with the seat adjustment options, it enables every driver to find the ideal seating position. An important feature of the steering system is the variable ratio gearing. Around the risk of excessive steering intervention destabilising the car at high speed. Naturally, the system · 52 · · 53 · Safety Uncompromising performance is nothing without safety. The 911 GT2 | Safety Bi-Xenon headlights High-level third brake light A must: absolute confidence in the safety of your car. Active safety. uniform swathe of light that increases active safety in all road scenarios and in long, blind corners in particular. The horizontal indicators in the outer front air intakes use high-performance light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to increase brightness and visibility. Two additional lights on the inside of each door offer added convenience and safety. The kerb light (white) provides useful illumination when stepping out of the car. The safety light (red) warns traffic The 911 GT2 excels in every respect, be it power, driving dynamics or safety. Every aspect of its lighting concept, braking system, rigid body and ergonomic interior is fine-tuned to its performance and to the individual driver. For example, the sport bucket seats (see page 72) with folding backrest offer racecar-like lateral support. Lighting system. The standard lighting system on the 911 GT2 uses the latest Bi-Xenon gas-discharge technology to achieve a light quality similar to daylight. The compact main headlights provide a broad and The brightness of the gas-discharge system featured in the Bi-Xenon headlights is approximately double that of conventional halogen units. The high-level third brake light at the base of the rear screen is equipped with rapid-response LEDs. approaching from the rear when the door is open. · 56 · · 57 · The 911 GT2 | Safety PCCB enables shorter braking distances in even the toughest road and race conditions. Excellent fade resistance ensures greater balance when slowing from racetrack speeds. Please note that circuit racing, trackday use and other forms of performance driving can significantly reduce the service life of even the most durable pads and discs. As with conventional highperformance braking systems, The key advantage of PCCB is the total weight saving of approximately 50 % over comparable metal discs. The mounting bells on both front discs are made from weight-saving aluminium. As well as enhancing performance and fuel economy, there is a major reduction in both the unsprung and rotating masses. This, of course, improves comfort and road-holding on uneven road we recommend that all brake components be professionally inspected and replaced where necessary after every track event. When it comes to brake technology, we demand nothing but the best. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB). corrosion and offers excellent acoustic damping properties. surfaces as well as general handling and agility. The pads are mounted in six-piston monobloc aluminium fixed calipers The 911 GT2 is equipped as standard with the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) that has already demonstrated its performance credentials on the racetrack, for example, in the vehicles of the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup. The large disc diameter (380 mm front and 350 mm rear) adds significantly to brake performance. The ceramic discs are made from a specially treated carbon-fibre compound that is silicated in a high-vacuum process at 1, 700 ºC. The material thus produced is not Even at high temperatures, the thermal resistance of the PCCB disc ensures exemplary dimensional stability. The ceramic material is totally resistant to Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) only much harder than metal, it is also more resistant to heat. at the front, with four-piston units at the rear. The resulting brake forces are not only extremely high, they are also exceptionally consistent. [. . . ] Every car is rigorously tested and comes with a comprehensive vehicle warranty.
