The offset of the bell part of the disc from the actual disc on 993 discs is greater than 944 NA, this means that you need to use a 5mm spacer under the disc to stop the disc hitting the caliper mounts on the trailing arm when bolted up. This results in the wheel mounting face being moved out 5mm further per side than the 944 NA parts. Rich Is that any clearer?

Hi I did the 993 conversion to my 62 notchback. I was the first to have Lanner do the 993 front conversion. For the front I used a 944T hubs (1988??), 993 disc and 993 calipers. The conversion is the pretty much the same for the front either type 1 or type 3 the difference is the work on the spindles (which is done by Lanner). I would do one thing different and have Lanner make the front hubs instead of buy 944T hubs. For the rear I bought 944 n/a (from a 1983 ??) what you need to get is the plate (holds the bearings in place and all of the e-brake pieces + the hub. I got 993 rear disc and 993 calipers. I did not need the 5mm spacer that some people have talked about. Anyways I looked for ever about this conversion and could not anything the advice I was given is buy the parts and It will all make sence. Lanner is great to work with and his prices are on his site. I have a few pics with my brakes under my profile.

I took the shoes you sent me to a local clutch and brake shop and they relined them for about $40. (beats 140 for new ones!) If you ask any local brake shop they might be able to refer you to a place in your town that can re-line the shoes. |

the shoes are also used in some model BMWs which is a much cheaper way of getting them. Sorry, don't know a part number for that!

SO, you can get 993 brakes to work pretty easy, how about Big Brake kits for the 993? Has anyone made a BREMBO Gran Turismo kit for a 993 work on a Beetle?
