Rear brakes and e-brake... Options

[edhall]

Hi guys, just joined as I've just got a 914. Need a little help with parts compatibility and wondered if anyone could help?

Car is a 74 914 with a 3.2 Carrera engine, 901 trans, and it stops with 911 SC vented rotors and calipers all round. Thing is, it doesn't have an emergency brake. The car was built in California but here in the uk it cannot be road legal without one.

Do I go 911 style drum in disc or 914 style ebrake on a calipers?

Thanks in advance

To all those using brake parts sourced from Rockauto, O'Reillys, your FLAPS, and other non-P-car specialist sources: Please don't drive on streets where I, or anyone I know or like, may be driving. I don't care if you choose to use crap for your brakes, but I DO care that you might hit me when they inevitably fail..............

Thank you for your time ................. The Cap'n

I understand Capn', but I have to point out that the odds of you being hit by a Porsche with OReilly brakes, compared to any other car with OReilly parts are probably similar to shark attack and the lotto cashing in. Think Escalade or Tacoma when you worry. Or perhaps an 80's muscle car. Ever see one of those at Auto Zone? Personally I would rather take my chances with a 914 since I only see them at club meetings. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)
