[s-cars] Broken plastic nut on 993 caliper... what is it?

[bob.rossato at att.net]

My only other comment was going to be, that since you got the Big Blacks (good
choice BTW) to make sure you swap the bleeder valves and jumper line around.
The Big Blacks are designed as a trailing mounted caliper on the 928GTS, and we
have leading mounted calipers.  However, when I look at the photo posted, and
it's a bit on the dark side so I can't be sure, but it looks like the jumper is
on the right side of the photo and the rotor rotation direction arrow cast into
the back seems to be pointing to the right.  Therefore this is as it should be
for a left caliper on our cars.

Scott - did you swap them already, or is ECS sending them corrected for our
application now?
