I have no idea. But when you find out PM me! I would like first right of refusal. I need a set for my 74 project.

I had an NOS set I sold for $1500 a decade ago. I can only imagine they are close to twice that now.

I looked on here for comparison but usually marked sold missing the original ask.so no help.

I will say I spent $3,200 at PMB having mine restored. So a good set that doesn't need restoration should be more than that.
If cores were $500.00 ea. That would put them at at least $5,200.00 for a good set.

I hate that people do that. I've never understood that.

Not pickin' on your for spending the money, Deez (well, sort of! :D), but that cost blows :eek: my mind! They're fookin' brake calipers; a simple device that has been around for decades. Sometimes the all-around Porsche tax is really off-putting.

It’s the detail of finishing the ripples on the 930 calipers. Run of the mill A calipers are a couple hundred bucks.

I know,I know. I just cringe at the costs, hand over the CC# and not look back.
I tell the wife it's an investment. But I know it's just an investment in my happiness.
