Looking for something grippier... Searched all of the usual suspects and no one has a solution... at least not that I could find.

Car has stock 914 Brake Calipers and Rotors. It is a late 72 so it takes all of the 73 and on parts...

Thoughts?

great... now i need to spend another 200 on f/r pads and new front rotors... Are these what you run?

Porterfield is a good pad...had them on the Puttputt and they worked well on the track, on the AX course and on the street

I've got a 911SC front end.

Those are the ones that were in a group buy that happened awhile back and many many members were excited about them.


When I switch my pads the next time they need it, I will probably get something similar.

You can buy $25 pads or you can buy $100 pads or... you can get Porterfields for $59.95 and they'll act like $100.00 pads.

One set does the complete front and one does the complete rear. You should be looking at $120.00 plus shipping... not $200.00

By far the best and least expensive brake "upgrade".

Ooooooops... sorry, just noticed you had the late model fronts. They are a lot thicker and slightly higher in price. They'll last longer though.

I've had Porters on mine for a while now and love them, I have the confidence back to heel/toe into corners and rag the car again I really upset a brand new Jag the other day on a roundabout.. Which is why we own them yes??

Thanks for that image, Rod. I just love the thought of a 914 slicing through a roundabout quicker than the traditional British cat. Must have been fun.
