Which brake calipers?

[Dr Gav]

Howdy all,
For those who have read my previous threads, my K04 conversion is due mid next month. (as well as looking for a blueflame exhaust) i ve been looking at a brake upgrade. It seems wise to upgarde them aswell if the standards wont/cant cope.
ALOT of peeps on here have brembo conversions but i would love a set of Porsche calipers. any ideas on which one(s) fit?
Ive thrown Porsche brakes into the search bar but to no avail.
All help welcome, no comment too silly as i am still learning! (its my first turbo car, and i will never look back)

Or 986 like I had on mine, coupled with a set of 305mm Cupra R disks. A truely awesome combination.

Are these straight fit calipers? Presuming using ICR cariers and hoses ?

If your refering to my 986 callipers, then no. I had to have custom carriers and custome hoses made to make them fit.

both of you need to get to the KoD meet on sunday!

especially you Gavin!

Hiya wizzie, i dont really do meets but i stopped at the meet past Leon roundabout (after the Leighton bypass) on sunday just gone, they know their stuff. I spoke about my K04 upgrade and got advice and feedback. If you wanna meet let me know or PM your number. There are quite a few MK3 cupras around MK now.
Hiya JB!, is this the meet your referring too, or the one at the hockey stadium?

 

[Dr Gav]

Sorry JB i just followed your KoD link, I recognise alot of the cars from just driving around MK (including a few i ve beat on the road ), I didnt realise it was so close to home. I lll definately turn up asap. Wizzie should follow suit.
