What newer front calipers will fit 964
Sorry for the re-look at old topic - but trying to find updated info on calipers off of newer Porsches that will fit on the 964 with adapters.
Looking to upgrade my front brakes - Not worried about the disc size up to a point as I am running 18 inch wheels. I currently have basic 993 front and rear calipers. But looking to use a larger disc; I find that these calipers will not take a disc larger than 310+ .
But the real question is what calipers can be fitted to the 964 (with adapters) that will improve break performance for a reasonable fare and allow a larger than 320 disc. I know that the 993 Turbo should work ( 993 351 425/6 10 ) and that the calipers off a 1986-91 928 S4 or 928 GTS should work. But, I am not sure how large a disc I can run with these calipers. Would like to go 330 - 350
Is there a newer Porsche (larger) brake caliper that can be fitted to the 964 which would accept a significantly larger front disc.

If you run 993TT calipers you need to run 964T/RS front discs, which are 320mm. I think 928 discs are about 300mm.
Sorry I cant help with your main question about even bigger discs/calipers...

If I were you, I would go to the search option and put in "Bill Verburg 993 brakes"
You will find so....... much information that your head will spin. Bill must have answered those questions a million times, I really admire him for his knowledge.
