914World.com _ 914World Garage _ A Brake Calipers on a 914

Posted by: lylegd Feb 21 2005, 09:26 AM

I'm putting A brake calipers on the front of my 914/6 Conversion. For those of you already using this setup, what brake pads do you use? The calipers came with new pads but they are too thick for my vented rotors so I have to buy new pads. Lyle

Sounds like you may have S-Caliper pads with your A-Calipers. You should be able to choose any organic or metallic pad out there as long as you specify they are for A-Calipers.

Pads depend upon your driving style and situation (race, street, agressive, etc.) What do you want to use it for?

Eric,
Thank you for your reply and advise. The car will be a weekend driver. No racing. But with upgraded brakes and a few other mods.
