Is anyone out there running 944 Turbo front brake calipers on their 914? I have struts with 3.5" spacing, but what else do I need to make these work up front ... rotors, proportioning valve, etc.? Rear calipers will be SC.
Thanks |

Actually, the 944 turbo calipers are fairly easy to put on the front of your car. It just takes offset drilling of the caliper mounting holes. A 19mm master cylinder will work fine with them, and the SC rears will be a good match without a proportioning valve.
Use 911 Carrera front rotors with them. I had a set on my car,but switched to Boxster brakes. |
