Hey Mike,

This is an old thread on the same subject...

I've also got contact details for a guy (near Leicester I think) who modifies the rear hubs to Porsche PCD - so it's like the Creative setup...

Cheers,


Mike

Thanks Mike,

Can you let me know the guy for the rear hubs as only gone and bought a set of early 944 disc's etc.. with mounting hardware for an early :wink:

Was that on eBay - I was watching something similar...

You could always try this guy, he uses Audi A6 calipers I think:

Yeah - but I thought it looked a bit pricey!

Yea, thought so myself and offered £300 and he accepted. Compared to the CSP kit which is more than double and not as good performance I thought it was fair.

Also T2D sell the adapter kit alone at £260 without the Porsche parts :shock:

All the parts are off an early 944 so the offset doesn't increase but I need to buy a caliper refurb kit and then it bolts straight on.

The only problem is now the wheels as i can't get hold of a pair of 4.5" flat4 fuch wheels for the front.

Knowing me though I won't wait and will sell on.

I think £300 sounds more like it - I'm sure you'll notice an improvement in stopping power
