Other brakes
Hey guys, I see almost only Porsche brakes on this forum.
I donīt wanna go that way. Do you use other brakes. I hear that you can use Volvo brakes up front. Any ideas? Thanks, BART |

well, you could probabaly use ANY brakes with enough machine work, but porsche brakes are good brakes and they are the easiest to retrofit. So, why make it hard on yourself?

Traction control? ABS? WHAT???? might as well buy a new car if you want or need those comforts...hehehe. Would be interesting for sure though!
I have been eye balling some BMW aluminum calipers at work, but havent looked into bore sizes or anything indepth (mesurments....ect even) but the aluminum ones sure are light!.

Did you have to make adapters to install the RX7 calipers? Can you give me some insides? Thanks, Bart :agree: |
