Is it done yet?

Finally ended up buying Powerstop B6 calipers, looks very good to me (we'll see how the finish holds up). Just need lines (the B6 is a larger banjo) and pads.

Nice update!

Too funny! It is like an old SAAB, backwards engine!

For the good of the community...
Pat, It may work for you now, but it's not a good long term solution. The 07k is super simple, but it all starts with #1 being closest to the timing chains. That's #1, you have to ignore its position relative to the crank pulley. Here is the procedure.

1. Set ...

Interesting, I'll be following along. My front brakes are a one off but spacing out the fronts isn't too bad.

Looks pretty nice!

I've thought about putting the Verkline subframes and arms on the 90. Looks like the clearance on lower pillow block to rotor is pretty tight, just the angle?

I feel like they were popular on S2 Forum.

Back in the day, I had Mance's solid mounts on my first CQ. I didn't feel like they added much NVH but I was also 24

Here is a shot of the B5 rear, the issue is my S2 Sedan hub rotor mounting surface is closer to the caliper carrier than the B5. Given my experience with custom brackets, I'm leaning toward a no adapter solution and reselling the apikol kit. I already have the B6/7 rotors and the ECS rotors I have ...

I'll try and stare at it, and take some pictures, this evening/tomorrow but I don't think I can space the caliper (and carrier) "in"/away from the rotor because the bracket bolts to the outside of the upright and the caliper carrier bolts to the inside of the bracket.

If I read this correctly, I might just need B6/7 rear calipers/carriers! Not the worst news, just means I've accumulated a bunch of B5 stuff I will not need.

On the Avant or Sedan models, due to the different handbrake mechanism, it is possible to use the full sized 300mm disc from the 8E0 ...

Yeah, swapping hubs is a bit of a pain but probably not that expensive. I'd consider grabbing a whole upright pair to avoid messing with bearings.

Spacers behind the disk is low cost to test and figure out if I have a tire issue.

Also, I just found this from the EU dorks . Need to look into it ...

Not sure about the universal seal option; also need oil and nitrogen. Couldn't get anything done today. Even if I could get a temporary workaround, now I have the dilemma of needing something to drive and both my cars are compromised.

I have about 12 hours to decide what's going on but, as much ...

Thanks guys, been around just not much to say when you're daily driving without issues 8-)

I'm pretty sure these are B4 S2 Sedan hubs (5x112 but not the same as B5), when doing it right goes wrong! I was almost sure Mance had used a full B5 rear suspension with 4.11 diff but found mention of ...

UPDATE!

Well, finally went to the track... lasted 4 laps :hammer:

Here's the long story, had all summer to do whatever prep I wanted but kept putting it off :hide: When I finally had to get ready I decided to pull the IM to inspect a persistent oil drip, ended up being a larger leak so I re-did ...

Looks great, glad to see more 07k swaps!

I'll be interested in how this oil pan for a 944 comes out, still in development but worth watching https://www.boostbrothersgarage.com/944-07k-swap

Swaybars? What are those?

Following, I still have a forged crank 07k sitting in a corner.

That should help get some weight in the rear

I put mine in the glove box of the CQ; if I was starting over I'd find room under the dash.

Wow that is close! Seems like ze Germans are trolling us!!

I'd take a look at ScubaDave's CQ for front mount rad ideas: http://theprojectpad.org/viewtopic.php? ... 3db7b4e6d0

Crazy! What's the engine weight?
