[urq] Sport Quattro Brakes

[djdawson2 at aol.com]

1) The 996 calipers must be machined on the mounting face to move them closer to the hub.
 
2) The SQ rotors need to have 4mm taken off the face that the wheel mounts up to.  This is because the Urq hub center doesn't stick out far enough to engage the center of the wheel.  Buying the SQ hubs ins't really an option to solve this issue because the cost is too high.
 
I don't have the rotor part number, but I'm sure Tim at Sunset could look them up without a problem.
 
I don't track the Urq.  However, this setup has been tracked and found to work very well.
HTH,
Dave

What mods to the 996tt  caliper?
Do you have a part number for the rotors, what?s the mod on the rotor?
Bracket can be made, not a big worry!
Track time?

I kind of use a SQ brake setup.  The rotors are SQ, the calipers are modified 996 monoblocks, and the brackets are custom.  The setup isn't one where you simply buy parts and install them, but it wouldn't be difficult to duplicate.  It works very well, and is certainly the largest thing you could fit under the 15x8 Ronals.  If you want more info, I can provide it, or put you in touch with the guy that put it all together.

I've been diving through the archives and can't seem to find anything on
the Sport Quattro brake setups. 
 
 
 
I'm getting along on my conversion of the AAN into the UrQ. I'm happy
for track days with going to a 993tt setup, have found some 993tt
calipers and rotors at really good prices, brackets and hats aren't a
problem, and I have 3 sets of 17" wheels I can use. Although seeing the
15 x 8 Ronals sitting in the corner of the garage kinda makes me think
about looking at the SQ setup. Plus I found some cheap Hooiser Rains for
$400 of the set (brand new 205/50-15s).
 
 
 
Who has experience with the setup, where can I get pricing, what do I
have to do to make it fit?
