993TT Big Reds on my 90 C2

[jcpca356]

Got 17inch boxster wheels to clear the brakes.
I'll get lines, pads, calipers, rotors.

I understand that you need a set of adapters to fit the big reds
on a 964.

Can anyone tell me where I can get them???

TIA.

VCI, you will also need to get the correct 965or 993 rear calipers and rotors.

[Bill Verburg]

Oh, and you might seriosly think about upgrading to a 993 m/c as well

[jcpca356]

Thanks for the reply. who's VCI? I'll be getting both front and rear. Are you saying the rear won't fit? Funny folks to sell big red kits don't mention upgrading the m/c... I'll look into that though. Thanks again.

vci

There are a lot of things vendors won't tell you

wow... i've been driving porsche for only 8 yrs but still learn new stuff all the time...

so it sounds like the rears from the 993TT won't fit my car (unless the TT rotors are 28mm?). As for the front, all I'd need is the adapters. It's a bit pricey but I guess I have no choice.

[jcpca356]

If I just put the front ones on and leave the rears alone, would that be problematic?

Neither the 993tt rear calipers or 993tt rotors can be used on a 964

Yes

[jcpca356]

Oh... so.... if I'm going to upgrade the brakes at all, I should just get the aftermarket set for the fronts as well as the rears?

[Bill Verburg]

That would be a good decision

[jcpca356]

Okay. I'll look into vci. looks like they're in my old neighborhood (I lived in west orange New Jersey)
