Stoptech (the company) having problems...
Was trying to get some replacement parts and was emailed this (a bit of a warning for those who use Stoptech like I do):

Horrid news, I always liked Centric parts and loved stoptech sport pads for street use.

Not good to hear. I've been very happy with my Trophy kit for the last 4.5 years. No issues. I recently replaced my front rings. Had a little trouble finding them. Bimmerworld had them and said that something was going on with Stoptech. Now we know. Hopefully this will get sorted.

This puts a damper on things, it's the only set up I run…even on my trucks

Stoptech update
This is posted on the Zeckhausen home page:
StopTech Parts Consumables and Replacement Parts for StopTech Brakes For over two decades, Zeckhausen Racing has carried a comprehensive selection of consumables and replacement parts for StopTech big brake kits. We currently have street and racing brake pads, rotors and rotor mounting hardware, and caliper rebuild parts. We used to carry replacement calipers, caliper adapter brackets, rotor mounting hats, stainless lines and more. However, on December 21, 2023 StopTech announced the closure of their USA manufacturing facilities, effective immediately. StopTech plans to build a new factory in Juarez, Mexico but warns that new orders may not begin shipping until 3rd quarter 2024 or beyond. At this time, no orders are being accepted for StopTech components labeled as unavailable or backordered. Some components are still in inventory and are labeled with available quantities. Please do not order more than the available quantities or your order will be canceled. In order to continue to support our customers with StopTech big brakes, we have recently added Girodisc replacement rotors and hardware. And we continue to offer brake pads that fit every StopTech caliper type from companies such as Hawk, Ferodo, Performance Friction, Pagid, Porterfield, Centric and more. As our StopTech-branded rebuild parts inventory dwindles, we are exploring other sources and will add them to the site as they become available. If anyone has experience with Girodisc rotors, chime in… |

I am one of those who switched to Girodisc, ran a few events last year on them, just as good as Stoptech rotors (I just replaced the rings, not my existing hats).
