Sir Andy’s thread is a good how to.
Short answer, yes. Front- 3 1/2” front struts, non S Boxster calipers, adaptor, Carrera rotor Rear - non S caliper, adaptor, Carrera rotor Tangerine racing 911 e-brake adaptor if you want e-brakes. Adaptors are available from Rich - A914guy@aol.com or Rebel Racing You must have 3 1/2” 911 front struts to make it work. |

Valley these independents come to mind; TRE Motorsports, TLG Automotive, StuttCars, Valley European Automotive. thanks, i will try everybody other than tre. their prices are higher than a giraffe's ass for anything or any kind of service. i took my car there and got an estimate and it was ridiculous. i told them i had a 1975 porsche 914 not a 2020 porsche 911. jesus christ! i dont expect anybody to be cheap but damn they are not playing when it comes to cost. |
