front
you will need a set of caliper adapters, contact VCI
965 rotors will be hard to fit to a 911, you will need anulus type 322x32mm rotor and flat hats to bolt to the 911 hubs

back
the 964 calipers can be modified to use w/ 930 rear rotors, fill the existing mounting holes and redrill for the 3" 911 trailing arm and the 309x28mm 930 rotors

Thanks Bill! Do you have any part numbers for the modification bracket part number or supplier? Also, rotors part number or supplier?
I'm in Miami, Fl and theres no Porsche shop that work on old cars.
Thanks!

I can provide the 322x32mm rotors with flat hats that will fit your hubs, if that helps.

I've made a set in the past based off what others have done. Front adapters bolt to both struts and calipers, inner caliper half needs to be machined, drilled and tapped for adapters to bolt to. I did this for Clint at RebelRacingProducts, I think I still have the CAD drawings somewhere...

Cheers, Don

Thank you guys, whatever you can come out with will be very helpful, since the only shop I know around my area all they do is sell chip and wheels for 996 and 997.

Hi!

Might not be "politically correct" to mention them on the PP forum, but ****** Auto (Competive web shop etc) in Miami have mechanics who works on older Porsches, as far as I know. I have been there a few times to pick up some parts for my 78 SC, since I visit Miami a lot, and I see all sorts of ages of Porsches being worked on in their shop.

They are located a couple of blocks from The Collection car store, also well worth a visit

Regards,
Christian
