Can I make 993 brakes work on a 911 suspended 914? If so would it be a bolt on or would i have to make custom brackets for the calipers to bolt up?

Not to be a thread stealer, but.......
I'm trying to compile a list of the variety of brake rotors available for Porsches so we know what options are available. Anyone know of a listing that includes diameter, thickness and offset? Feel free to pm me with measurements of any rotors you have and I will compile a list and post it. Thanks |

Thanks Look in the rotor section (2nd half of catalogue). All the info you mention is specified in there. The years are a bit off since this is a european catalogue. http://www.ebcbrakes.com/Assets/2008_UK_Au...e_Catalogue.pdf Forgot to mention: for the rear you will need 5-bolt hubs. Getting an early 914 hub redrilled is probably the cheapest/easiest option. You can also install 911 hubs but you will need other half-axles + adapter to your transaxle. Need to be careful what 911 hubs you use - only certain years fit. |
