I was thinking of using one for the front, mainly for a parking brake....
Bad idea? good idea? Thanks Andrew |

Most available today are sliding caliper rather than 2 piston, including the "high end" cars, Audi, Mercedes, etc. Not until you get to the top of the line cars do they go opposed piston.. then those might be ridiculously large for the 914. Why not just fix the stock ones? Use a larger diameter rotor and use an adapter to move the stock caliper further out radially..?? |
