Wilwood Powerlite Rear Brake Kit for Porsche 914

Hey Teeners! PMB is proud to represent the entire line of Willwood products for all of our Porsche models but... look what we have here! An entire system designed for our awesome 914's.

Most of our cars have a lot more power than they started with. To complement the added power, they need upgraded brakes and Wilwood Disc Brakes has come up with the perfect solution. You'll get forged aluminum Powerlite four piston calipers, brackets, and hubs, combined with larger, plain face or SRP drilled and slotted, "vented" rotors. That's right... finally vented rotors for your 914. Wilwood’s brake kit upgrade weighs ~53% less than our smaller OE cast iron, unvented brakes. Reduced unsprung rotating mass is always the right choice.

Note: these brake kits MUST be used with a 914/6 or 911, 19mm master cylinder.

Brake kits feature:

• Forged aluminum calipers are lighter and stiffer than cast iron, and have been proven over decades in countless road races, rally, and off-road competitions
• Aluminum mounting rotor adapters, brackets, and hubs make the kits substantially lighter than stock while increasing braking performance and stamina
• Wheel studs are included with the front kits (user supplies proper lug nuts for wheels being used)

Calipers: Powerlite (PL4R)

• Rigid Powerlite four piston radial-mount calipers are engineered to improve braking performance and feature pistons sized to maintain the 914’s proper front-to-rear brake bias.
• Caliper profile allows fitment in many small diameter wheels, and quick-clip top pad retainer allows fast pad changes.
• Calipers are finished in durable gloss red or gloss black powder coat, or 24 other color options (additional charges may apply).
• Rear kits include Wilwood’s MC4 mechanical parking brake in left
  and right-hand configuration, plus the needed cable kit

Rotors: Spec37 Plain or SRP Drilled & Slotted

• Larger and thicker vented rotors provide greater brake torque and resist thermal distortion with curved vanes that circulate cooling air.
• Both front and rear rotors are 289mm x 20mm (11.38”x0.81”) premium proprietary Spec37 iron alloy rotors with 36 curved vanes.
• Both front and rear rotors are available in a precision plain face or SRP drilled and slotted pattern.

Brake Pads: BP-10

• BP-10 street performance pads provide smooth and consistent response with long wear over a broad range of temperatures (other compounds available)

Installation Parts:

• Kits include caliper brackets, Flexlines, and premium-grade installation hardware.

What size are the pistons?
I would assume you should really upgrade both front and back to maintain the correct braking proportioning.
