I noticed at NBO a NESF members car had porsche calipers.
Who was it? It was a red classic with white wheels. Just want to ask you which porsche were they off and are they a straight fit?
Cheers

Matt on 22b runs Porka calipers.

Cayenne's and 911 caiipers seem to be top choice BUT as said getting the hardware for them can be an issue, I looked into it and end up with some half decent AP's to refurb.

Im just looking at the mounting brackets at the minute and decide whats next. i cant find no info on how to get them made or nowt. No dimensions or anything. I work in a fabrication shop so making them aint an issue. Could also make numerous sets aswel Smile
Few websites ive found but they tel ya nothing aswel.

I have some for AP's I can show you to make a mock up or try calipers on if you have the calipers.

Why specifically Porsche brakes ?

I was looking at carls at NBO and likes them, they stood out looked massive and better than brembo's. when trying to find out which calipers fit, what ill need etc i cant find bugger all. If i can find out the mounting bracket assembly ill have a bash at making them then decide which brakes to go for

You'll prob not find diagrams etc for brackets cos most are made bespoke to fit & or company's don't want any one else to make them I had to get my Ap racing rear brackets made as a one off cos no one duz them

I run the Porsche 6 pots on the front and have just bought some 4 pot calipers for the rear. You do need to get brackets made. Karl got his made by a local company. You need to buy the bigger discs which are a fortune. The back ones for mine are £420

He doesn't come on here that much but if you PM him he will tell you where he got them.
