The 89 928 S4 calipers are not the same as Big Red's.  These calipers were 
also used in 944 / 951 / 968 cars with  M030  sport package.

The piston sizes are the same, however it uses a smaller pad.  The caliper 
is mated with 32mm rotors just like the "Big Red's"

Igor, are you confusing 928 S4 calipers with your "Big Black" 928 GTS calipers?
