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 |

QUOTE What is the benefit to using a 911 front suspension over a 914 front with drilled front rotors? Forgot this one... vented rotors. Drilled rotors are designed to vent gases that can build up under the pad , they don't really cool a rotor. A vented rotor will run much cooler. That said... 914's generally don't have brake fade issues unless it's operator error. |
