    Extended length of bolt for Caliper

    I am looking for M12x1.5.80/90mm bolts for my porshe calipers ..Have fitted the 323 disc but with the 993 calipers i had to add 7mm shims to the bracket there for i need longer bolts . The standard ones are M12x1.5.65mm.Does anybody know where i would get them from ?..or is the there another model porsche/Audi that has longer bolts fitted to Caliper ?

    Cheers

    Any proper hardware store or online store. Make sure you get 12.7 High tensile bolts as I believe these are the same as the standard items.

        From memory there's not much to hit so perhaps get them longer and let them stick through or grind the ends off. 5mm shouldn't cause any problems so go 80mm, that's a standard size.

          It's often difficult to get what bolt suppliers call fine pitch metric!
          Order some bolts from VAG for the Audi S8 with the brembo front brakes 99ish. They will do the trick as those calipers have a rather large boss.

            Think they are N 105 260 01 (M12X1.5X95X50) So they are 95mm long with 50mm of thread.

                If you can't get them from VAG I can get them, but they are £26.50+VAT for 10
