EDIT: Bondo is right, the 911's are shorter than the 914... my bad.
Although it really is a great idea (the 60's-70's XKE jags had them inboard next to the diff), mounting would be your biggest hurdle. And on a minor side note, your adding more rotating mass. If a mechanical brake kit costed $200 (just a straigh bolt on for both sides), would people even be interested? One off's are great and all, but for those who have this stuff on the drawing board, its gotta make sence ($$$). I agree some things are way over priced, but those who make this kind of stuff gotta pay bills too. |
