  • RS2 porshe brake options

    This has just been posted on yahoo RS2 forum and I think it deserves a wider audience. I take no credit and cannot verify all correct. However it comes via owners who have sourced and fitted these options.
    I had to transfer original excel to word so its a bit compressed.

    Thanks.

    One month ago and you could have save me a fortune. Audi ask 370 Euro + VAT for each rear cross drilled rotor. Still good to know for the next time.

    Cheers.

        Where's the cheapest place to source the Porsche brake parts - now we know the part numbers?

          try a recognised porsche specialist e.g. http://www.design911.co.uk/ initially then shop round. I have not done it myself yet to know which one

            Aha - looks to be just what I need. Mine needs new discs all round and is currently sporting cross drilled ones and we don't know what they are!

            Has anyone else got cross drilled discs on their RS2?

                    Hi Cobstar 'longtime no post'. I think the info below would help via one of the many porsche specialists.
                    That no appears to be a 928 rear disc which is cross drilled although a zimmermann is cheaper

                      Hi Alastair

                      Internet time has been rather limited in recent months for one reason and another.
                      Thanks for all your help. Aren't our beloved beasts interesting LOL!

                        Is the Porsche RS2 rear caliper a purely RS2 thing or is there a Porsche part number somewhere out there that does the trick.

                        I have asked before without any luck and I know Vagparts do them, but I was just wondering as there seems to be very litle info out there and my rear calipers (amoungst others) look like they may need replacing sooner rather than later.

                        thanks ... Angus

                          Why do they need replacing Angus ? Is it just the pad binding noise caused by corrosion underneath the pad sliders ? If so replacing the sliders is a lot cheaper.

                            My guess is that there will be a porsche caliper that will work with the usual modifications due to leading edge/ trailing edge issues.
                            Given size of disc I guess it will be a 968 CS ?M30(upgrade) or 928 rear caliper. You would really need to find a helpful porsche specialist to check measurements and work it out.

                              Basically yes, making for an annoying intermitant whining noise, which is currently not to bad.

                              I am about to bite the bullet ( I really am this time) and upgrade to big reds and thought I would sort out the rears at the same time, but before I do I thought I might find out about the rear callipers in case the corrision was too bad to make good. is the term "pad slider" the technical term and are they known as anything else (for ordering porposes)?

                              Also if I am going to do a refurb on the rears, what other parts are servicable or should be replaced?

                              Pete and Al did you upgrade the brake lines when you did yours?

                              Thanks
