Early v Late Front Hubs & discs weight differences?
As Title, the 924s / 931 and early 944's have a Hub and combined brake disc carrier, hence the brake discs bolt to the hub and have a large hole in the middle.
The ABS later type use a Hub where the Disc slides over the studs and secures with 2 set screw. The disc does not have a large central hole and will be heavier, but the hub is smaller than the early type although that is Aluminium.
Anyone ever weigh the two types ?
The stub axles are different also, so the real question is which complete assembly is heavier ?
Between the early stub axle / strut / Top mount / Hub & Disc carrier / Brake disc / Iron caliper compared to the later type with Brembo caliper ?
