One lucky tattoo'd teener has his eyes on this set and wanted me to post a picture when they were done. This is a matched set of front (yes I do fronts) and rear calipers. Done in the very chic silver (clear zinc) with gold accents.

The 914/4 fronts are 42mm, coincidently the same as the later 911 rears. I have not had a pair of these late 911 rears, so I cannot confirm how close in design the parts are to either the 914/4 front ( either version) or to the 38mm 911 rear. The 914/6 rear appears to use the same outer casting as the 911 rear (38mm), and is just modified for the adjuster. The inner castings are all different.
To answer your question directly, I don't know if a 914/6 rear can be modified to 42mm or not. I suspect it could be. I am working on that already but need a 911 42mm rear set to work with. |
