I never knew that they made a parking brake caliper...

The problem with the Wilwood Spot calipers is that they are only for a .38" width rotor, so if you want to use it outboard on vented rotors, you'll have to open it up and make custom spacers....adding to the cost of the conversion.....

Spacers pretty easy to do on the Wilwood spot. Also, Rennegade Hybrids was making a spot caliper to fit a 914....I said WAS, as I couldn't find it anywhere on their site. There were some pic's of it floating around sometime back. Perhaps contact RH?
