RE: Porsche Brakes
Well I was doing some research a couple weeks ago and found some very useful info on AZ regarding using prosche calipers, and steal braded lines, and a8 rotors that might be useful
TT carriers won't work with Boxster calipers. You need to get custom brackets from EvoMS or Liam (on AW) for $175
You can use A8 rotors (312mmx25mm). S4 rotors(321mmx30mm) won't fit because the are too wide for the caliper.
Here is what you need:
1) boxster 986 calipers - car-part.com, off a '98 boxster
2) pads - porsche boxster pads - ECS Tuning
3) Porsche 911 SS brake lines - from around a MY 77 which will connect to the hard lines or Blauparts.com $36.95 ea. P/N :63071016. 16" line.
4) caliper carriers - sourced from Liam for $175 -
5) A8 rotors - ECS Tuning, you can get the BBS/Zimmerman rotors for $140 for plain, $180 slotted, $200 slotted/drilled.
or at irotors.com $149 for slotted.
Also
boxster calipers = A8 rotors
boxster s / 996 calipers = s4 rotors
