I found in my parts stash two bigger than normal calipers, but when I picked them up they ver very light! A magnet wouldn't stick to em either.
So I am thinking I may have found some unitanium. I don't have any pix as I have been loading up for the swap meet tomorrow am. I have to go grab about 4 hours sleep! UHHHhhg! So my question is how much are they worth? They do need a rebuild, but a new pair are what? 5400? Concourse ethuisitst, this may be you luckie day! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (I guess that last part should be over on that other board!) ((I cant spell over there either!) Thanks guys! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

I have a used set also. I don't know what they are worth, but they don't seem to be in high demand, and I'm sure the price of a new set is based upon the fact that they sell very few.

I paid 400 for a very nice set several years ago.
200 for new SS pistons last winter.....they are light. Bleeding them is a bitch. For anything but an all out hi-HP racecar they are all one needs. |

QUOTE(alpha434 @ Jul 15 2006, 11:32 PM) 300 bucks to a friend. 400 to an enemy. Look to make sure that there isn't any cracking down the middle, between the two sides, from the pistons splitting the caliper. Oh. And it's "unobtanium." As in unobtainable. The S calipers are 6160. Not real unobtainium (which is where Porsche won't tell you what it is and the part is too expensive to find out for yourself.) well since they have been in back of my parts car for the last few years, I think that 2 bills is just fine! AS FOR THE DICTION LESSON Thanks, but did you know that Unobtanium is MADE UP WORD! Gawd you are an annoying know it all sometimes ya know! |

I thought you were on the cutting edge of young machinist technology. And yet you diss "unitanium" and try to correct it as "unobtanium." My my my...... Seems as though you are slippling! As it turns out, unitanium is the new unobtanium. Read up on the latest journal and get back to us with some prototypes! |

Pithy retort? Is that sorta like a spiffy torte? Well, I'd rather have a frontal labotomy than a bottle in front of me.

QUOTE(alpha434 @ Jul 16 2006, 12:54 AM) I don't care. Oakley thought that unobtanium sounded cool. Dino didn't actually know what was going on. He, like some idiot at Oakley, just heard someone say it and decided to use it first chance he gets. The S calipers ARE 6160. Since the material IS verifiable, then it is NOT unobtainium. Al Lager has a set of 917 center lug nuts. The material is an aluminum alloy. Each nut is worth far excess of 2000$. THAT is unobtainium. Only Porsche knows EXACTLY what it is. Porsche WONT tell. And nobody will EVER know for sure because the cost is FAR too great to ever find out. go into a round room and stand in the corner. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pissoff.gif) And while we are at it, little boy, how many sets of 911 S calipers have you owned and sold? Yeah that is what I thought. The lexicon of my posts are non of your concern. I only respond to you as to amuse myself. You are a clown sent here for my own enjoyment so dance monkey. Make with the next gem of your homespun wisdom. |
