If you put front brakes on the rear, what will you do about the parking brake? Will they even fit? I'd assume you would need spacers to make up for the shorter wheel hub.

Ok, yeah, I have the 951 rear valnce. No it's not a 931 nose pan, similar, but I cut it myself for more air to the IC. I have seen 930 cars with S4 front on the rear, I may have to get custom hats and aftermarket outer rotors, I haven't looked into it too much yet. The Ebrake should ride on the inside fine, again I need to look into it. The 930 I saw did not have an Ebrake, it was a track car.

That front bumper/driving light combo looks kinda' early 928-ish, really nice. It's come a long way since I was down there. You should be proud, Andy. THE SR-51 BLACKBIRD LIVES !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Andy,

I sent you this long diatribe on brakes and suspension in answer to your questions in your PM to me but it bounced back a few days ago because your PM box was full. PM me with your email addy. I have some tips for you. Are you going to the VW/Porsche show on 9/21? I want to take you for a ride in my car to give you some brake/suspension ideas........

Oh. That car is looking badazz. I wish you could have seen Phil's satin black 930 this weekend at the Auto-X. It rocked.

Tifo

I wish I could have made it to the autoX! My Email is ak9443@hotmail.com Yeah, I hope to make the 21st GTG at GE park. I'm currently trying to borrow a car trailer to bring my car. I doubt I'll show it, but I know there' a few folks that want to see it. BTW, my PM should be clear too, thanks
