Porsche brakes??

[Davem]

hi,

Been offered some porsche brakes quite cheap.. full set up.. Looking into it i think the porsche 4 pots are off a old porsche 911 or simular. The old wide boy shape. So talking late 80's early 90's.

Does it matter that the calipers are that old? any things i should be looking for etc. Dont want to get them and then the stoppin power is like half as good as say a new set of brembos.

Not really sure how the hole brake age works. What you had to maintain on them or anything.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers.

Is this the set on edition? I was interested but thought they were looking a bit too ghetto!?

Got them anyway now so will wait and see what they like.

Hey

My mate has the Porsche BBK and it is quite possibly the best bit of kit I have ever seen. Stops wars I tell thee! They are amazing

Are they a monoblock caliper? I'm not sure they will be... Even so they'll still be very good.

Get some pics up if you can?

Just check with Porsche before stripping them for a rebuild. As if my memory serves me right some parts are hard to come buy.. For peace of mind I would get some seals and rebuild them

I used to work for Porsche and drove several old lairy 930's with 500bhp and yes if the brakes pull that up then they shouldn't have any issue stopping your SEAT!
