Ok so I am upgrading to a 911 suspension (Seperate Thread http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=87337 ). Then I hear brake caliper bolt spacing 3.5 vs 3.0. So (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) WTF is 3" vs 3.5" Am I making a mistake going with 3.0 vs 3.5? I really don’t understand the issues. Do I care?
Thanks for real world opinions! Regards, James |

It depends on what you want to do with the car. What kind of motor you're putting in etc.
Basically, more stress (big motor, track time, etc) means more brakes. 3" = 'low' and 'medium' brakes 3.5" = 'medium' and 'high' brakes |
