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 ?

The pad size is the same for 944 front and rears. Forgot the piston sizes as I sold my fronts.

Would that be the correct year ? Also I don't want to sound to dumb but does the Maltese shaped brake pad retaining wire just pop out with pliers or do you have to unscrew it's latch ? It does not want to come out easily and I don't want to break or bend it. |
