I figure some here will have more info on this, but Wilwood is advertising it has a big brake available for 914-4s. Just in case anyone would be interested. I haven’t even looked it up yet, but seen the ad in Excellence.

I run a similarWilwood front caliper and a smaller Wilwood rear caliper on my Datsun 510 race car
Wilwood provides excellent engineering service/advice. I would suspect that this same level of engineering and service will be at play with this product Interestingly after evaluating the braking load that my race car sees, they recommended their high performance street pad compound for my application. It performs very well with consistent performance from first cold application to the last corner after 30 minute sessions of hard braking. These new compounds are indeed incredible. In addition, the weight of these calipers is amazingly light. The reduction of unstrung weight on the 914 can not be a bad thing. I do run a stock system on my six. Perfectly adequate for spirited street driving |
