I can't find an answer to this...is it at all possible to put 911 brakes onto the 914 while maintaining the 4 lugs? Or must everything be swapped out?
I like my Mahles and would prefer not to have to replace them. And while we're on it, another brakes question. I read a couple posts where people just changed out the front brakes and left the rear original - to keep the e-brake. Any opinions on having 2 different brakes front and rear? |

BMW 320i brakes should bolt right on the front and is an upgrade. If you have Eric Shea restore your 914 brakes they will be great. No need for upgrades. If you have massive horespower, you need a brake upgrade. If not keep your 914 brakes. You might want to upgrade the master cylinder to a 19mm unit from a 911. Direct bolt on.
