Brake calipers - common with other makes?
Folks I need to find two rear calipers for my 87 Carrera.. In central NJ, asap. Does anyone know if they are the same as other more common cars? Cab I cross reference a Mercedes or Volvo etc.?

Why bother? I've had great luck finding used ones here.

I seem to recall that the other cars that use the same calipers were things like Ferrari 308s and such-like. If true, that'd be even worse.

I have a set that came out from my 87 and also a rebuild kit. I am in Colorado though.

Try weekend rides in PA? They're the nearest Porsche dismantler that I know of.
