Source for wide caliper spacers
Good afternoon all,
I'm upgrading the front brakes on my SC track car, going to 24mm Carerra rotors. Does anyone know a source for just the spacers for the calipers? Looking to pick up a set to swap in when i rebuild the calipers. Thanks! |

Usually the easiest way is to find a set of cores. Then you also have the correct size hardware.

that seems like a ton of work when you can simply source a set of the later Carrera front calipers. try a WTB add in the classifieds. they can generally be had for less than $200 a set. I bet spacers would be at least that much.
I assume you are doing the fronts only? if you do the rears too you will need a proportioning valve or swap out to a different MC. the bores of the rear carrera are bigger as I recall. bill verburg the resident brake guru may chime in on that. ive done the upgrade to an SC racecar and my current 75S and by selling the late S aluminum calipers from the 75 I was able to buy the Carrera calipers, rotors and rebuild kits and still came out $50 ahead. even in my SC spec911 I left the SC rears in place with no ill effects after cooling the front with the 24mm rotor effectively.
