Will be doing the BMW 320i front calipers on my 1970 914-4 2.0 but was wondering what can I use for a rear caliper? Thanks

Thanks Jim,

Here's the link to all of the 914 calipers:

With the 48mm pistons and large pad up front the VB914-6 or a stock 914-6 rear caliper would be a perfect match bias and pad wise. This would give you a 38mm piston in the rear which would be the same as a 911RS, early 930, 911SC and 911 Carrera pad and piston size all around. Your bias would be 1.6:1 and perfect for what the factory established for the car.

We have two pair of original -6 and -6/GT calipers for $1,200 and $1,500 respectively as well.

ALL I can say is see Eric at http://www.pmbperformance.com/catalog.html

I bought the rear 308/V brake set up from them and they are beautiful ! Nice and honest people and great products. Only place to go. Direct bolt up and Vented rotors along with parking brake retention!
