What's needed to go Big Reds on a 92 3.3, Adapters? Rotors? bolt on?

Metal Guru

All you need are the calipers and '94 Turbo 3.6 rotors and pads. If you bought 928 GTS calipers like I did, swap the crossover pipes so that the bleeders end up at the top of the caliper when mounted on your car.

Suggest anyone... remove clean and paint your existing calipers red and you will still stop just as fast as if you had the larger calipers for a lot less money.
ps... the 3.6 front rotors are less expensive than the 3.3 rotors but fit both cars

Metal Guru

Yeah but they don't look nearly as good as Big Reds. Park next to a 3.6 and you'll notice how puny the 3.3 calipers appear.

I don't think I would ever have to worry about parking my car next to a 3.6 T though

Having said that yes I would like to do the conversion at some stage as "Size does matter"

Would it be sacrilegious to have big reds powder coated yellow? My car is black and yellow, and I am not a fan of red at all

I Have access to a new set 993tt full set up, Calipers, pads, Rotors, etc, Wanted to bolt on? Was Thinking my old set (in great condition) could be sold as an upgrade to n/a 964? 930? or even Jim's 914 who's building wheels for me right now? 993tt Front rotor is larger than 3.6 by just a few mm's?

Metal Guru

993 front rotors have a different offset than the 3.6 rotors. You should have no issue selling them and then buy the 3.6 ones and you are set to go.

Metal Guru

Yes or do the Bad Boys thing; paint them black (it was an option on the 3.6).

De47nise, go away.
