Is it possible to retrofit Brembo brake calipers on a 87’ 924s?

Thanks a bunch in advance guys.

Yes, but you will need to also replace your suspension (struts/spindles/hubs) to 1986 951 specification and you’ll need at least 16in wheels to clear the calipers.

You will lose your speedometer because there is not a hole for the cable in the later model spindles.

yep, that hole is a liability anyway, it just weakens the hub. Use a GPS speedo instead.

You can have the spindle modified to make, we did that too mine.
