UPDATE [DMCForum] Re: brake upgrades.

[Andrei Cular <acular@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For everyone that is interested I have posted some pictures under 2767 
picts of the Porsche 951 rotors and calipers I am putting on my car.  
Unfortunately my carpel tunnel is acting up and I can;t machine the last 
adapter I need to get everything mounted.  Everything will fit in the 
stock wheel with stock offset execpt for the dust shield.  Once it;s 
mounted I will probably have to add an aftermarket proporting valve to 
prevent the little wheels from locking with almost 2x the braking surface
