Wanna run vented rotors on the rear?, Wanna have a parking brake, too? Options

Clay Perrine's solution

Being discussed on the Bird board now. He's prepared to make up 50 sets of the brackets if he can find buyers. The caliper is an off-the-shelf Wilwood part.

Check this thread out from last year:

911 Handbrake Conversion

I have yet to get to the 911 handbrake issue but I am close. I built the suspension last year for another tub. I decided not to use that tub but my new tub is basically ready for this.

I will use a 911 handbrake on the center tunnel as some of the factory GT rally cars had. I had the extra pieces laying around (911 e-brakes, extra handbrake mechanism).

The reason I went vented was simple. I'm using an S-Caliper up front and I wanted to balance that caliper out with the proper one the factory used on the rear which was a 911 rear m-caliper. The 911 m-caliper is set up with spacers for vented rotors. I figured it wouldn't hurt anything to have them on the car. The upside is the vented rotors for a 911 now drop right on and they're quite a bit less expensive than the one-off 914-6 solid rotor.

I too would love to know Andy's 911 cable secret... as I'm fast approaching the install. I will be going center tunnel as explained before and I'm about to weld in a couple tubes and cut for the handbrake lever. Being center mounted I might be fine with the equal length cables but...

Andy any advise? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
