QUOTE Yes, the rear calipers are widened. Rich did this to fit the vented rotors. I wanted to retain rear parking brake and reason for sticking with stock 914 rear calipers. What all is involved if I want to put vented rotors on the rear of my factory 6? Can I just purchase the rotors, spacers, pins and bolt it all together? Jeff Attached image(s)

QUOTE(davep @ Mar 4 2004, 08:13 AM) Just measure the shank length of the longest bolt. I just keep forgetting what it is. sorry 'bout the delay - busy, busy -- and limited access hours at the storage facility ... anyway ! the 'outer' (shorter) bolts are 2,570" int 'inner' (longer) bolts are 2,735" i guess that'd make the outers 65mm, the inners 70mm if i ever noticed before, i'd forgot - the pins have two clip retention holes - it looks like they might be 911 caliper pins with a redrilled clip hole. or maybe not - they're simple enough (and mine are just cheap mild steel) that they could have been made to order, and whoever drilled the clip hole just got it wrong once. i do notice that the top and botom pins have different clip locations ... |
