Brakes that have a pair...

You know, de-chromed, big Porsche rims, Brembos, etc.,... German Look rules!

Brakes that have a pair...

Post by Jadewombat »

This is what I've been up to lately...

Image

Already has Porsche 924 Turbo brakes all around, just getting the master cylinder and hydraulic clutch to match with the setup now. Using the stock gas tank holes to mount, etc. The whole trunk will be painted with POR-15.

Still working on it, just kicking around the different setups, etc.

This setup requires no cutting, and I think it might end up being a lot stronger than the bar you've got running across the trunk area, as well it doesn't take up any extra space. If the new Wilwood MCs are used, it's even more compact than what I've got here. Just 2 holes to drill, then a couple of high strength band clamps.

No problems to report after years of use.

Here is the new MC that is much more compact than what I used.

Hope this helps,

Dangit! Where were you three weeks ago?

I didn't want to cut all those holes, believe me. Shoot. Sorry, just need to vent here. Don't worry, it'll be strong with the bar, I'll have a side brace to tie it all together to.

Got everything installed and bled, feels like a Mercedes now with the brake situation.
