What is the best match for rear brake calipers if I am planning a 5-lug conversion with 1970 911T Struts and hubs? Leaning towards the 3" Brembo Aluminum calipers in front, the lightweight is a big plus in my opinion.
Hoping to use the 911 parking brake in the back, so no need for complicated rear calipers with internal parking brake. Besides a 3" M-Caliper (38mm?) what are the other options for the rear calipers? Something lightweight would be a bonus . . . If I where to run a dual master cylinder pedal with balance bar would it be possible to just use another set of the 48mm Brembo Aluminum calipers on the rear? |

Fair enough. My "spendy" comparison was to FLAPS rebuilds for $100 each that are no where near your quality, not to mention that your aluminum versions are new. Some can't afford the initial cash outlay, others are shops repairing on the cheap to make a profit.
Bottom line is that your stuff is worth every dime, and the reason I keep coming back as well as referring others to you. |
