Ok guys! Time for antoher one of my 'dumb rookie' questions.
What brake calipers are applicable to my 914? I don't want to use the originals, and I'm turning it into a GT. Any seperate years or models I can use? Please, endow your knowledge upon me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

Why not the originals?
What are you using for an engine? What are your plans for using the car? The GT used 911 S calipers up front and vented 914/6 on the rear; that is plenty for a 200 HP car ( the early 930 used the same combination essentially). |
