I'm back and making progress again! =)

So after reading countless threads ranging from a few years old to almost 20 years old and so many different recommended parts (some NLA or extremely expensive or rare now at this point) and being more confused now than ever, I'm looking for an updated recommendation. I'm not concerned about loss of stock e-brake or having to install 911 e-brake or other solutions.

Thanks to @michael7810 and @ValcoOscar for transport, I now have a functional 914 tail shifter trans in my car. Thanks to another friend, I also have a complete '86 911 front end in my car as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) And before anyone asks, my 5-lug and big brake upgrades are primarily for aesthetic purposes.

I'm hoping for my pie in the sky dream that I can find something that I can use with my 914 transmission while I save for a 915 or better trans if that's possible.

Is there any chance of readily available parts (911,944,etc?) that can use the Swayaway 911/930 custom axles and not require any custom machining to upgrade to 5 lug rear end with my existing 914 trans and allow easy transition to a 915 or newer trans down the road?

PMB Performance does a V caliper kit ( I think that’s what it’s called) that spaces out a stock rear caliper with longer bolts and spacers. I didn’t see it in their catalog but give them a call. Even if it’s not in stock they can probably make up a kit or a set of calipers for you. They can tell you which rotor to use.

The next step would be to get M calipers, a 911 e- brake and add on tangerine racing’s cable adaptor set.

Or buy my 914-6GT calipers for $1,800.
