Background: Some of the first feedback on the Porsche 928 was that it was under-braked for a car of its weight and performance characteristics. Porsche went through two major re-designs (the "S" brakes, then the S4 brakes) before arriving at this wonderful 4-piston, large-rotor setup.
If you Love your 928, Brake It! Why risk a front-ender that will cripple or possibly total your Porsche when a proven, bolt-on, brake upgrade is available. The difference in braking performance and stopping distances between the early setup and the big S4 brakes is AMAZING .
The Kit: We are going to provide you with EVERYTHING you need to pull your 928 into the garage and drive out with S4 brakes in a couple of hours. Easy bolt-on installation. We use include GENUINE PORSCHE parts, new rotors, new anodized billet brake adapters, new Porsche OEM hardened mounting bolts, new Mintex Street/Sport brake pads, and new Stainless Steel brake lines. The only used parts are the 4-piston genuine Porsche calipers themselves, and they have a 1-year free replacement warranty from our supplier direct to you.
The Bonus: Every brake upgrade kit we sell comes with a complete replacement set of front and rear stainless steel braided brake lines. Braided stainless brake lines will give you the firmest brake pedal you have ever felt - and the piece-of-mind that your flexible brake lines are new, and abrasion and cut resistant.
Upgrading the 928 S: The Porsche 928 S from 1982-86 have slightly larger calipers than the earlier non-S models, and they use a different front spindle. We can upgrade the brakes on this model too, by supplying two good used front spindles from a non-S car for you. Then the brake upgrade continues as normal, to equip your 928 with the late model 4-piston caliper setup. Select the “S” upgrade kit below.
The Brake Kit Includes:
- 2 NEW front brake rotors
- 2 USED Porsche 4-piston calipers
- 2 NEW anodized Brake caliper adapters
- 4 NEW stainless steel braided brake lines
- 4 NEW Porsche OEM hardened brake mounting bolts
- 1 NEW set Mintex Street/Sport brake pads
Options:
Quality Mintex brake pads for street use included. You can upgrade to PBR Metallic (Street/Sport) and PBR Ceramics pads (Ultimate) when ordering below.
Fitment Notes:
- 1) If you are not sure whether this kit fits your 928, call us, we can help.
- 2) These are bigger brakes and rotors. Some (not all) early "phone dial" wheels will not fit over the new calipers without a small wheel spacer. If needed, the spacer can be purchased from us here.
