Handbrake bits

So far as I know all the handbrakes parts are the same on Porsches.
The early 944 (up to 1985) uses steel rear arms. Once you get onto 944 Turbos (951) then you get ally rear arms which widen the rear axle and the caliper mount is part of the arm, not unboltable like the earlier stuff.
The 924 Turbo rear brakes are the same as the early 944 brakes, steel arms and removable backingplates/caliper mounts. The 924GT also uses the steel arms but these are a tad rare!
Everything else uses ally rear arms and will widen the rear track of your rear suspension to the point where it be impossible to get the rear wheels under stock rear wings (fenders).
