Progress with my 996 brakes!

[ricola]

I knew it was going too easily... I have just been measuring up for the front adapters but the caliper won't go fully onto the disc, the pad is fouling the spindle caliper mount

This is far on the caliper goes, I need another 2-3mm to centralise the pad



The back:



Looking at old threads it seems Andreas (Typ Vier) got away without this problem as he has bigger discs for his 6 pots, although I have found about the same measurements for the adapters, I haven't measured the offset of the lugs on the front caliper though (holes in caliper and offset relative to the pad centres)...

I guess I will have to clearance the spindle about 3mm (maybe the pad plates slightly too) unless anyone else has found a solution?
