996 rear disc brake problems!!
im looking for some advice,
i have got 996 rear brakes discs and calipers on all 4 corners of my bug, there all identical Iv used them, as i have them , but now im wondering what m/c should i use ? as if i use a bugT1 m/c i dont think it will have enough fluid to fill all the brakes and problely have too much travel, i dont mind using a proportioning valve but what m/c??? thanks Marco the Turbo Steam Engine. |

Hello Marco!
Well, original 17mm bug M/C is not the ideal choice! Your options are a lot including : 911,944 Kerscher and even from a Bay window non-servo assisted M/C 23 (!) mm is very good choice Good luck with your car! P.S. I would love to see some photos from your engine ; my address : vw_wasserboxer@yahoo.gr

Hi Marco, Russ and another friend of mine are both using stock M/c's with Porsche brakes with no ill effects tho Maybe they would be better with a bigger cyl.
Are you using a full set of 993 calipers? i.e fronts and rears as the rears have a different sized pair of pistons |

Marco,
Some front calipers has all the pistons of the same size and other have two different sizes per side in a diagonal order (like rears) Tomorrow I'll check some front monoblocks and I let you know...
