Guys

Trying to locate some of the above (front calipers).
I can find loads of big reds for sale, but noen of the above (they has the slightly raised mounting points).

Any suggestions on where I should look or does anyone know of some for sale?

Help much appreciated.

Thanks for the heads up guys.
I'd ideally like to find a used set rather than brand new (limited £ as always), but shall bear them in mind.

The owner of this garage in Essex has 2 928's of his own, rare models 928S GT they are I think but he has lots of parts and may be able to help.

Surely these are the same as Big Reds? From memory the only difference is that one is set up for leading edge mounting and the other for trailing edge? Easily converted by swapping the crossover pipes with the bleed nipples, which is what Porsche/Brembo do...

I think the 928 ones have a slightly raised mounting point vs the Big Reds?

You may be right, but I believe that theyre similar other than for the colour and the orientation.

From doing some reading, they are an identical caliper, apart from the orientation and the raised mounting points.
I do unfortunately need the raised mounts, though I suppose a spacer collar might work?

Id suggest asking Ian Godney at Godspeed. If its safe and practical then Ian is the fellow to speak to.

Can you direct me towards anything which describes the differences, please?
