914World.com _ 914World Garage _ 356 SC rotors and assemblies

Posted by: TC/914 Nov 22 2005, 10:38 AM

Does anyone know if the late 356 SC five lug front and rear discs/assemblies will fit the 914? Would there be any advantage to the conversion if they DO fit, other than the five lug wheel options? Or is the original 914 set-up already better than that.

Thanks ! !

Unless you have 911 struts, they will NOT fit. Besides that, they utilize the same pads and rotor thickness as the 4 cylinder 914s, so there would be no gain in braking effectiveness. The Cap'n

Thanks, Cap'n! That's what I wanted to know. AND REALLY what I wanted to hear!

And the rear parking brake is totally different, uses a small internal drum brake that sits inside the disc brake.
