I picked up some 944 turbo calipers at the swap meet at the Ventura show, I was told that with slight adjustment of the mounting holes they will fit on my 911 front end. They are aluminum black and say "PORSCHE" in raised lettering and it says BREMBO on the back , they are 4 pistons the top pistons are slightly smaller than the bottom ones . They said it was origionaly from a 89 944 Turbo. Have any of you guys seen this done ? Would it work with my 15inch rims ?

As said, front '86 944 turbo caliper has piston sets with different size, one set is quite a bit larger than the other. Rear caliper has 2 same-size piston sets. Don't know the exact size of the pistons though.
For pads you could consult the following catalog. It will show which calipers use the same pad. Second half of this catalog also shows the different disc sizes (diameter and thickness). http://www.ebcbrakes.com/Assets/2007ukautocat.pdf |
