Big brake kit FS, $1000
Porsche 993 NA calipers (black, used, off a '95), brackets and hats
(vortrag, new un-used), Coleman 12" rotors (very slightly used), stainless
lines (goodridge, new).
Everything is direct bolt up for a Coupe quattro (or cab, or B4 90).
However, Vortrag will swap the 4x108 hats for 5x112 hats, (and lines too, I
suppose, I forgot to ask Todd) so any five bolt G60 car will also work.
(urq, 5K, 200nonUFO, S4/6?)
Full disclosure: I put this kit together around a pair of bargain calipers
I found. It turns out there are many 993 big body caliper variants, and
mine didn't work with Todd's off the shelf kits. So, he machined brackets
up special. (high grade AL, magnafluxed, etc) However, the gigantic pads
overhang the edge of the 12" rotor a little bit. Everyone says this is
fine, go ahead and use them, or grind off the excess pad if you feel better,
but I've invested so much in the eS2 that I don't feel like making
compromises. So someone less anal-retentive than I can have them for about
.60 on my dollar. Plus shipping, or I'm in NJ USA for pick up.
All the usual big brake issues apply: You'll likely need 16" wheels and
lot's of backspace. I would think any of the wheel combinations documented
by Bira or mov'it would work.
