I had a set of those callipers from my Lexus half clip, unfortunately they would not fit on 1982 suspension.
I bought a set of the spacers from you a couple of years back that sets it up for 330 Cayenne rotors etc. -IT STOPS!
3Uz and 5 speed auto at the front weighed in about 50 pound lighter than the Porsche engine on its own, on my bathroom scales the transaxle (from memory) was about 260 pounds, borgewarner LSD replacement was about 40 pounds.3036 pound total, No attempt to reduce weight anywhere else. Balance came out at 53% front 47% rear. that was with 10 litres fuel, (about 2 gallons) and no space saver, so with a tank full and a real full size spare would be back to about 50/50 (space saver would not fit over your brake kit and I'd NEVER use a space saver anyway)
Solid front bar with 2 adjusting points and adjustable drop links, it goes, handles and stops.
It is OK to update a 928, they are beautiful looking cars, Why not make them go better?
If it improves it, use it.
Keep the V12 pic's coming.
