Brake Discs: Drilled & Vented, is $95/ea too much? Options

[Scott Carlberg]

So I received this catalog from FVD-usa.com, mostly 911 stuff, but I've wanted to check out their catalog for sometime...

Anyway, on page 101 of their catalog, they list "Drilled Brake Discs" for the 914,
Front & Rear. They are $95/ea

if you go here: http://www.fvd-web.com/phpkatalog/index.php3?lang=usa

then put this part #: fvd 351 08 and then enter
the Rear # is fvd 352 07



Yes, I know, the picture has 5-lug, but the catalog does list the 914-4 separately from the 914-6

Pelican has sold in the past, and may still sell, drilled solid 914-4 rotors. A waste of time and $$$ IMHO to get drilled solid ones. And they will crack at some point in time--so now you have to inspect them every month... Not so great for a street car.

Vented rotors will not fit under stock 914-4 calipers. They're fine if you've upgraded to 911 brakes, but those are a different animal than 914-4 brakes.
