Busy weekend coming up - Brakes and such

Great!!

So Jeremy, Are you by chance going to post a picture of your car once you get the new brakes on ? Which calipers are those, and are you going w/ the 23mm MC (or do you need to)? Good luck with the install!

So far I got both fronts done - which isn;t bad since I went and got the boat today and really didn;t start until around 4:00pm. I just need to make some new hard lines to lengthen the fronts a little for the difference between the mounting holes. Got one of the back rotors on (930 Rotors) so will tackle the rest of that tomorrow.

Nice setup Jeremy, but who makes it? I was under the impression that the big red upgrade is too big for fuchs. VCI's product, last time I checked, would not fit under 16" fuchs.

As Bill said - 993 fronts on a custom rotor (or 930) 993 backs on a Turbo rotor (with the throats opened up)

Oh, a faux 965, that works just as well.

The kit included:
rotor adapter X 2
Caliper adapter X 2
Caliper adapter bolts X 4
Caliper bolts X 4
OEM 1998 993 Front pads w/out sensors X 1
NAS bolts, K-nut rotor mounting X 16 each
UL-32 Directional Vane rotors 309mm X 32mm X 2 each

Total: $415 plus Shipping

GT Directional Vane Gas Slotted rotors 309 X 32 X 2 each
ADD: $235

I opted to up to the GT Directional Vane Slotted rotors - these are wilwood and the version they use on NASCAR.
