I have some '97 911 Carrera Brembo calipers that need rebuilding, but otherwise use-able. How do I make them work with the 5 lug 914? I have looked in FAQ's, Google, Bing, etc. Pelican justs sends back to 911's technical BBS.
Can someone help me out? Is there an adapter? Or do I have to buy 914 calipers and space them. What is the best route? Thanks everyone, korijo |

When you converted to 5 lug wheels, did you swap out the struts or just re drill the 4 bolt discs? If you swapped the struts, the Carerra brakes may work with Zcarerra brake discs. Check the bolt spacing on the mounting caliper ears. You might also see if you can find some 911 front struts used.
On my car, I simply used Carrera front struts and swapped out the struts, calipers, and discs as a unit. Probably overkill for a street driven, light 914-6. |
