Yes G60 Master CYL will be fine!
The Alloy clearance must be ET38 or ET37.5 (Rare LOL).
Compomtive was the only smaller alloy with an oval shape hub clearance under 16!

sounds like i'd have issues with 15" ET35 MIMs then

well the 280mm setup works great at the moment so i will bear all this in mind


I don't think a semi will give the same results

That will be a tasty setup, what size are the new calipers?

Is the G60 M/c and servo bigger than say a 16v? 22mm and 9" respectively?


You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

Don't suppose you know 'Flash' around Yeovil quite a bit, he drives a white mk2 BAM lump? He has brembo 4pots under quite a small wheel.

If you can get a set the "Standard Boxster" Calipers thay are Smaller than the Boxster S Ones...

986 Boxster Fronts...  986-351-421/422

986 Boxster Rears...  986-352-423/424

Front & Rears are the same size but pistons are smaller on the rears....

yes I dont know the chap but ive seen him (apparently) in ilchester (when someone posted on here about a stolen white mk2 from ilchester).

also this evening I saw an old maroon polo saloon on what i assume were ats wheels (with massive stretch) and a slammed red polo 6n2 or 9n(?) hanging about in the same area!

anyway i digress.

i think the boss has realised the cost of new rear calipers for his pansy boxster S, so there goes my brake upgrade  :angry:

clipperjay what diameter discs are those? over 300mm? apparently you can use these calipers on a 280mm setup (which i have). point being i might get away with a smaller wheel...?  :huh:

Tell your boss to stop being such a ghey, if he doesn't get new rear brakes the people will question his sexuality even more etc etc.

I would be careful about smaller calipers from a standard boxster the mounting holes might be smaller for the RS2 carriers as long as they are match for your mount holes (Carrier bolt center holes end to end 13cm) they would be fine, but like I said I had a set of black ones and they didn't fit had to be Boxster S's rears
