Hi,

have some nice Porsche 4 Piston Calipers from a 993 Modell with Performance Friction Pads for sale.

700€ maybe less :wink:

Wanted them in my Camaro, but now the money is gone and I will try the Baer Track kit.
Greeting

Simon

hey, that sounds perfect.

when the kit is complete with the 13"disks, calipers, pads, spindles, brake lines...then everything would be fine!

how long do you use them already? will I need new disks and pads in the next weeks or is everything reltive "fresh" :lol:

Simon

/edit: is it on a 4th or 3rd gen?? I would need third...

The kit is 7 yrs old. However I've got less than 5000 miles on the rotors and pads. I don't drive the car a lot and the pads are literally like new. I've never had a issue w/ them.

I'm a 4th Gen. :( Don't know how much a difference there is between the 2.

You can get those Porsche calipers on Ebay.de a dime a dozen and relatively cheap.
However, mounting them on the Camaro (4th gen) is a different story !
After you get done having those brackets CNC'ed, bought the lines and the rotors and maybe different pads you will have paid for a complete StopTech kit which is brand spanking new.

maybe there is hope. I asked in tgo and maybe there are just minor modifications on the spindles to do.
maybe it's not THAT much effort, so maybe we can get together. I will keep you informed.

Not trying to rain on your parade but i recall the adaptions that were made to Roy's car were quite exetensive, including serious spacers to make it all fit.

About those pads, unless they are brandnew there is no point in resusing them, reusing used pads on any rotor is pointless.

Hey Simon,

you were at Hockenheim last Thursday, right? Was it your car that I saw spinning at the start/finish corner? Any damage (hope not)?

Ben

Hi Ben,

yes it was me. A little bit to fast at the exit (and a worn differential)...and twist!
The car stopped just a few inches from the wall :shock: . But everything is fine..maybe I've got a little flat spot on the tire, but that's not that bad.

Now I'm at the Bodensee to finally get my new engine in, yeeeha.
Greeting

Simon


und nachträglich alles Gute zum Geburtstag :D
