echristodo Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 We are trying to figure out the right way to build a set of BBK's with used hardware, but can't figure out which calipers to use. Will the ones off of a str8 911 or boxter work? Or does it have to be off of a 911T? Will the ones pictured below work right, taking into account that CJ's adapter brackets would be used?

Karlson Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 talked about that before, the only caliper that works is the one thats on top of your picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echristodo Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 talked about that before, the only caliper that works is the one thats on top of your pictureI think they are front and rears off of the same car. They are from a 1995 993.I know I am kicking a dead goat, but homedude is about to drop some coin and the piecemeal research from the search function was not dependable enough.

Boomin850 Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 I was almost 100% sure that someone else got something else to work...but 993tt is the one to get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

echristodo Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 These are off of a 993tt, so its just a fitment issue huh?looks like the same thing pictured above, but the price is twice as much cause they are offered as 'big reds.' Different vendors though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the rotors are the same thickness between the 993 and 993tt I see no reason that they wouldnt work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zappo Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 The black ones appear to be the same as the reds, so they should be fine. Not sure about mounting the rears, but it should be similar to the rear S60R ones if I remember correctly.The black ones are missing the pad retaining springs.
