Well, I said I wasn't going to go the big brake route but a full set of 993 calipers landed on my lap for cheap. Note that this requires the 951 Fuchs on the front to clear. but I had them already.
I slotted the rotors in my mill. Quick and easy and saved a bunch. Here are a couple of pictures. Note the size and venting compared to the 77 911 rotors. The calipers weigh about the same but the rotors are 4 lbs heavier! |

Very nice! I have been running 993 Twin Turbo brakes on my teener for about 5 years now on all corners. They work great. Joe Obrien(Series9) is running some large brakes as well. Good luck!

Dan Dan, Nevermind. It just figured out that was a lug-nut tie-down in your pic. I couldn't figure out what that thing was for the longest time.... |
