 |
|
I am having a bad Google moment. I am trying to get the dimensions for the 1985 Porsche 944 front rotors to asses a possible caliper upgrade, and I am finding nothing!
Is there some smart person on here who would happen to know the dimensions?

Probably safe to assume they're the same as 924 5-bolt discs, no?

If the 924 5-bolt is the 924S/Turbo ones, then probably the same (I will assume), so what is the rotor dimensions for the 924 5-bolt?

Hmmm, according to this site (http://www.apexspg.com/924s-944-968-c155.html) all these cars have the same front rotors?!?
1969 911 2.0H6
1970-71 911 2.2H6
1972-73 911 2.4H6
1975-77 911
1978-83 911 SC
1970-71 914-6
1980-82 924 Turbo
1987-88 924S
1983-85 944

That’s believable, saves on engineering and tooling costs.
They use same size rotor but get better braking thru use of better calipers for more clamping force.

Cool, thank you all. I will post details on the calipers once I have them, and know they will fit.
