    Rear 996 on the 300mm discs that are machined down to 280 for the normal upgrade would be rather nice.
    Yeah seen it done on an S2coupe and S4's however there isn't much space so it's a matter of placement and getting a cable in

      I Like the look of these may have to look into how they would fit on a coupe...

      The Rear brackes have nothing to do with me... I just heard about them...

        I have boxster S calipers with a hydraulic hand brake, and no mechanical brake. But then i do not need a MOT although i know some one that will MOT it as long as the hydraulic hand brake is mechanically locked.

            Feels very good rocco but, I use a pedal box with twin master cylinders and a balance bar adjuster, with no abs system and own made braied lines. So to compare would not be fair. But I would say the standard master Is not big enough for big front brakes and such likes these on the rear.

                      NO - RS2 master cylinder is same as S2 - 3B/ABY... some smaller engined B3/B4 models have smaller master though.

                        Did we ever find out why the RS2 had two master cylinders in etka against it? and if it was bigger?
