Hey guys and gals, I'll be finishing off the Wilwood e-brake set for the 914 this month.
I've actually been waiting for some news to break here on the 914 board --and just buy the kit--but impatient as ever I've built (2) sets for two cars / myself and a good cust'r. The kits operate on brackets that mount to the trailing arm (bolt-on), and allow the wilwood to float (required design). OE cables go thru new support brkts and we are using 986 rears (on Rich Johnson adapters ) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) with 911 vented rotors. The unit sits accross from the main brake caliper, like the new Carrera GT. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) Unfortunately , these will be working prototypes--not a sale item until we do some tool and die work for alum castings...as these are made from C/R steel and carry lots of unneccessary weight . No jpegs...but the 2 cars should be at Willow Springs @ WCC '05. I could'nt make these from steel @$150.00 a set> too much fab work, however casting out of alum. will bring the price into reality. BTW, the Brembo setup was dominant on just about every Euro exotic at the L. A. Autoshow last month. Kinda funny how each mfg. mounts their ebrake at a different position ! MF |
