    A rear 330x22mm setup with 4-pot 996 brembo calipers and separate handbrake mechanism is epic, but at £1500 is not cheap... but nothing of quality ever is!

    Oh the dilemma I just want to get the car painted really
    What did you do in the end? In a similar situation now.

      I went for the bank breaker

      Currently running with RS6 8-pots upfront with 365x34mm Phaeton discs and Porsche 996 Monoblock 4-pots at the rear with 330x22mm RS4 discs and the separate handbrake caliper.

        Where did you get all the bits from? Brackets and callipers etc?

        I'm building a system up front as couldn't stretch to the 8pots etc so don't really want the faff on the rear, just want to buy the bits

          Front stuff was all from TPS a while ago, rear 996 callipers were from ebay then refurbed, some parts from TPS, brackets from Bambridge (Kev) but dont think he's making them anymore. Rears were fitted at VRS who have the designs for the rear setup.

                              does the cayenne caliper have a handbrake?

                                Nope. It will be two caliper setup like Audi R8.
