    UFO Brake conversion.

    You have to decide which Porsche calipers you want to use. Popdemonic's brake update uses the Cayenne 6-piston caliper & it is essentially bolt-up & go.

    Currently I am doing the exact same thing on a set of UFO brake uprights. I am using a 347mm Audi A6 rotor. Just needed to use a spacer to correctly center the rotor. These calipers will require 18' wheels too. Currently waiting on a part to verify a measurement before starting a "how to" thread.

      Porsche Boxster (986) brake calipers over OEM Audi 312x25mm rotor

      Thats what im lookin at, but i am also toying with the idea of replaceing them with the hp2 caliper (cheaper option)

          A mate cnc'd them for me but I doubt he still has the sizes plus the mounting pitch will be wrong

          The only pair ever made were on the golden goddess I sold to you, have you still got it (in its black form?)

            On the 100 they were just about identical to an S2 bracket for 314 discs IIRC.
            For a UFO strut im not sure, never measured one.

              still got it , changed the front struts to s4 hp2 set up, could not stand the porsche brake squeal any longer , plus the discs were shagged,typically now have a v8 saloon with ufo set up , work fine but look awful, porsche or hp2 again,,
