996 Brake calliper torque setting.

[milleman]

Anybody know the torque setting for the large Allen headed bolts that hold the front brake calipers on?, its a 3.6 2002 MY.

Having to change the front discs on mine, done 14500 miles from new in 09.02 and the inside faces are absolutely shagged, outside looks great!.

thanks

I'm assuming it'll be the same as a boxster - full instructions here:

It says 63lbft

Sounds like a safe-ish bet...the 10mm hex caliper bolts on a 993 are also 55nm or 62.64 lb/ft.

Many thanks, finished it last night.
