I have been working with Eric Shea to try and guess where thes calipers came from. I got them in a parts car. The guy said he took them off of a 911 with "M" struts. I bolted the calipers up with no problems and they clear my 8" Fuchs. I have included some pictures with compairsion. The caliper pistons are hollow. Eric says BMW or MB.

I measured the openings on the caliper for compairison:

Mystery Caliper "M" Caliper
58 mm 54mm Width
77mm 62mm Length
25mm 24mm Rotor opening
