Rex Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 Aww, boo. Thanks for the reply anyway Maiku. Is there a difference between other Porsche calipers? I've fitted a few 996 front-ends to Boxster's.....And there was me thinking I had the parts in stock....I'm still going to measure anyway The spring of hope is eternal and all that...

If the Boxster calipers you have are the Black ones, those are simply the ones from the standard brake package, seen on the plain Boxster and 996, 993, and even 951(944 Turbo). Long story short, buy the adapter brackets and you'll be good to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Posted June 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 Ahhh - I thought so The red ones are 6 pots if memory serves me well, but I think they'll be the black 4 pots being a 2.5.http://www.ipdusa.com/version.asp?strPageH...1&V_ID=9112Expensive brackets though - and they're astute enough not to post a picture so I can't copy them Thanks again!
