Hi!
I'm still keen on a brake upgrade on my project Audi 200. I definitely
want 993 brakes. I recently had to pass up on a set and passed it along
to another lister as I "lost my ride home", so to speak, but I still
want to do a brake upgrade perhaps in a year's time (when someone heads
back my way from the USA).
I was looking at the parking brake solution of the RS2 in ETKA, ie.
Porsche brakes with the parking brake under the rear brake rotors. I
will now proceed to ask a typically stoopid question and open myself up
to flames and abuse, but here goes anyway. Is it possible to fit the
parking brake solution of the Audi RS2 or Porsche 944/911/928/993/etc
onto the '89 200 non-quattro's rear axle? Actually, it's more like: how
is the parking brake solution bolted up onto the RS2 rear axle?
BMW and others use this same solution. I intend to try and get hold of
some local Porsche mechanics in order to pick their brain on his as
well.
I totally understand there is no need to go larger on the rear brakes.
That's not the issue with this e-mail. Here I am simply trying to find
out how the setup can be done and would like to speak to some listers
who've fettled with Porsches and Audis in their time. :)
Thanks. I'm going to run for cover at this point.
G.
