Starting my 5 lug conversion.
Have drilled 914/4 hubs and was wondering about the rotors. Can I us the 914-6 rotors with the existing calipers or do I need to drill 914/4 rotors? Also I am looking at a early 70's 911 SC rear setup, Hubs, rotors and Calipers, also has the control arms and shocks but I am pretty sire I can not use them. Know I need the 911 or 914-6 stub axles, If I get the 911 stub axles are there any modifications needed? Also do the 911 rear calipers bolt up or will there need to ne modifications I know I loose the emergency brake what are the options there. One front question. What is the benefit to using a 911 front suspension over a 914 front with drilled front rotors? Thanks for your help and advice. Irv |

Lots of threads on this in the classics area . Check them out , it can turn into $$$$ quick , but you end up with a good setup depending on what way you go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) . Also the brake setup depends on how you want to drive it , engine HP is a factor also. Good luck , and most (if not all ) states require an emergency ( mechanical ) brake setup to br street legal. If you are to race the car , not necessary . Wheels dictate narrow body , not a lot of options , or flares , bigger selction of wheels.
