looks like you need monoblocks (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) |

Marty, Are you using carrera rear rotors on your car with that park brake setup? The adapters you used for the boxster calipers are they the same you would use on the front?
Thanks. |

The 986 monoblock adapters are specific fit to FR and RR, and not interchangeable. I'm using Rich Johnson parts for adapting the 986 calipers to my 914 kit. Those are killer QC, and I wouldn't "Re-invent the wheel" by making msds blocks. The rear rotors shown are vented early 911 style, I'm not sure what the Carreras spec out to, Eric may chime in here.
A level 2 kit will be made for the Big Red style rotors , sometime after the first kit (shown here ) is introduced. Proll'y using Marvs6 as the donor car (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) The Wilwood spot calipers are decent once they are spec'd to my housings, out of the box they are basically generic. The adjustment of the actuator is simple, and the holding power is excellent. You will not need to use 986 calipers in order to use these Pbrakes. The cable support bracket (msds) does drop neatly off of the lower monoblock bolt though , if the 986 is used. The only thing specific to these parking brakes is that they will fit all 914 trailing arms (L pn and R pn), and that the 911 vented rotor needs to be used. Marty |

I was hunting around for this thread yesterday. I would really like to have a parking brake (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I did come across a company in UK that makes a line lock emergency brake. Not the best choice I feel. Anyways you guys can send me a prototype and I will gladly test it out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |

That fricking Japanese patent system is something else...
They have more types than I can figure out Kankai, Laid open Kankai and on and on. Not sure why a Japanese filing. For one, it's expensive. I have seen Olympus pull an old patent out of their ass that couldn't be seen in searches. It languished for a long time (6 or more years)in the Japanese system and then they pulled it out. I think they did a US filing off of it too. Anyway, it was good for a free 3 day trip to the US Patent Office to search the stacks. We were the 3rd team in and found the proverbial needle in the haystack... Kenwhowritespatentsforaliving.... |

They look simular to Wilwood 120-2280 and 120-2281 Mechanical Spot
calibers. This is what I plan to use on my 904 kit car but the state would not allow them, not DOT approved for street use. |

When I was looking into these I heard there was a problem with these sticking. Dont remember where I heard it though. Not the design but the caliper itself.

The news for the MSDS parking brake upgrade is that we received our official U.S. Patent # 7,837,014 in the closing days of 2010. I am finalizing the production-part castings for the caliper housing adapters with the subcontractor and machine shop.
The unit in the pic is using one of the prototype (fabricated steel) housing adapters. The production units will be cnc machined castings...so you are basically looking at one of our test mules in the pic. Lots of test miles on the brakes, and still going strong (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) More updates to come , the USPTO did take longer than expected (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Marty  |

When will these be available? What is the price point? Will these fit my 930 Brake system on my 914?

Mike, the first production model will be for the vented (911 rear rotor) 914-6 style. In the photo , I am using the Boxster caliper (4 pot) with the vented rotor.
Can also be used on the non-vented rotor by removing some block spacers. The second generation parking brake kits for the Big reds/ 930 style rotor require another spec casting due to different dimensions of the bigger rotors.We have already spec'd the larger rotors for the larger castings. There is no specific release date right now for the 2nd gen kits. So to answer your question, NO the first issues will be for the oe vented rotors as stated above. Thx ! Marty |

I realize it has only been 3 months since the last post, but have you received approval to sell these yet? I am in the process of upgrading my car (aren't we all) and a new parking brake system would really fit my needs.
