Can you tell me if it is possible to fit the rear calipers of 911 Sc instead of the origina ones on a 914/6, with the vented discs and the hand brake system from a Sc too ?

Has anybody already tried ?

Thanks for your answers,
Jeff

Two places that come to mind first to find the answer:

1. Eric Shea at PMB Performance
2. Patrick Motorsports

Good luck.

You "can" but there would be no advantage at all.

Both share 38mm pistons and the exact same pad. Best, if you have 914-6 calipers to keep them. We have the spacers and fasteners to make them work with the vented rotors. Much, much, much less expensive and much, much, much less of a hassle to execute.

Keep the 6 calipers, use the proper spacer kit, use the factory hand brake cables etc.

914-6 calipers with spacers... better known as 914-6/GT calipers:
