They are from a Porsche Boxster

It may help to post the part number of the calipers.

 

FYI - Boxter S calipers are 996.351.425 / 996.351.426

986 351 421 on the calipers

 

Thanks

Hey Tan,

 

Slightly off topic, but what brand spacers are they, did they fit the hubs OK.

Hi, I presume these wont fit under 15's?

you will be hard pressed to find big brakes that fit under a standard 15" wheel - most require 16's & motor sport variations which can house big brakes

 

options for with a 15" (AFAIK) are 288mm calipers or HiSpec Billet 4's, the latter of which i have just put on my VR

 

i am unsure if bespoke makers like Wilwood have any options that will fit

Hi, oh ok I thought they looked a bit big. Cheers for the info.

The Hispec billet 4's come in a kit for the rado or??

pleasure

 

i did quite a bit of research into my options for binning the standard VR calipers but keeping the 15" speedline alloy

 

the 4 pots from HiSpec i had seen on here as dragongreen has them on his VR - plus id seen them on wheeler dealers when they used them for a porsche IIRC

 

the Billet 4's do come as a kit but you will also need a set of 10mm hubcentric spacers, longer wheel bolts & braided hoses with a banjo connector. i did initially get the spacers & bolts from HiSpec too but didnt use them as the spacers were not hubcentric & the bolts needed cutting down a they were slightly too large. the braided hoses were fine

 

HiSpec manufacture to order & have a 3-4 week lead time

 

i put all the details in my build thread here http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?44751-g0ldf1ng3r-s-VR6-amp-1-8-16V/page40 if you want specific info :)

no danger - happy to help

 

there is a pic of the 4 pot yellow loveliness on one of the pages too lol

 

mine are only just bedding in but early thoughts are that they are going to be superb!

Yeah just went through your thread, they look the part alright!! I might give them a call tbh. The money you're talking seems very reasonable for a decent setup like that
