Hey guys, Im sure this is a rerun but...
Im doing a brake upgrade but using rather unconventional components.
I will use early Porsche 944 turbo calipers and either Sport Quattro rotors
(until I find out the price). I can also go with A8 rotors but I will need to
use adapters for the calipers, if I use sport rotors its basically a bolt-on
upgrade.
Im not looking for terribly specific info, but just hoping to find out which
wheels are more generous for this type of upgrade. I have BBS RF's in a 16x8
but I hear these dont have much clearance for larger brakes. I dont mind going
to a different 16/17 inch rim, but if possible I may try spacing out my
fuchs. The rally cars has pretty hefty spacers behind the fuchs, Im not sure if
thats feasable for a street driven car.
I was considering the TT caliper / A8 rotor setup, but I really want a 4-pot
caliper. I understand the 944T caliper is not quite a current monobloc but I
had a 944T and the brakes were the best I have owned.
Thanks guys
Sean
