I ordered a ceramic Stage 3 from SPEC today.  They had the parts in stock
and I need them for Infineon.  hey also had the steel inserts for my
Fidanza.  If I get 30k mi out of it, I'll be happy.  It's a 9.5" disc,
instead of the 9.75"  If anyone's interested, I'll do a postmortum report on
the current Fidanza/FiberTuff/HDPP/Ceramic TOB after it comes out.
