cayenne brake upgrade ???? what rotors????

[tgiblin]

will these brakes fit behind stock wheels?

[pzp107]

No a chance. Need 18 inch minimum.

[ajroy]

I know some guy used 17s when doing this mod on an A3 I saw a post and pics somewhere on the web. He had to shave/grind the caliper slightly on the top and bottom to get it to fit properly plus run a spacer. Its minimum clearance. I'm thinking about doing the same so I can swap between summer wheels and winter stocks down the road.

[Dan@JHM]

For proper piston layout, the bleeders should be swapped with the crossover tubes and the left caliper run as the right and vice versa. You want the smaller pistons at the bottom and the bigger ones at the top. You have to remember that these calipers are run on the front of the rotor on the vehicles they come off of so the piston orientation is correct, but when we use them they get flipped around. By swapping the bleeders and tubes they get put back to the correct piston orientation.

Yes we did swap over the lines to the other side of the calipers in order to mount them like oem. Sorry if there was any confusion, Jay was actually working with the rotors and I was taking care of the caliper fitment.

Jay was also working on the caliper to spindle mounting, we are having our machine shop make custom stainless steel bearings for the caliper that adapt the 16mm hole to a 14mm hole to match the spindle.

[Dan@JHM]

They are OEM calipers for the right and left side and will already be setup properly.

I am not sure what you are talking about, no modifications will be needed at all. No worries from a customer stand point.

Haha quit posting before I give you all the info :)

We do swap over the lines for proper oem fitment.

UPDATE GUYS!!

We got calipers in Red and Silver now. (Black that we thought we could get wasn't right for the 350mm rotor we made)



Check the calipers out by themselves on our site here -> Porsche Cayenne 6-piston Calipers ONLY



And...........

We now have the FULL BBK put together.





Check the BBK out here in our store --> JHM 350mm BBK with Porsche Cayenne Caliper


INCLUDES: 2 - JHM 2-piece Lightweight Slotted Front Rotors (350mm x 32mm), 2 - Silver or Red Porsche Cayenne(6-piston Brembo) Calipers, 2 - Stainless DOT approved Brake Lines, 1 - Set OEM Pagid Pads, 2 - OEM Cayenne Brake Pad sensors (they work by only splicing 2 wires), 1 - Liter Pentosin DOT 4 Synthetic Brake Fluid and all bolts and hardware to mount the calipers.


We even include the OEM pad sensors from Porsche with our FULL KIT. It is easy to wire up.

Do you guys plan on selling the mounting hardware seperate?

[Dan@JHM]

Do you guys plan on selling the mounting hardware seperate?

Yes we will, we are just finishing up an order of hardware and when we get everything squared away and ready to ship we will put it on our site.

It will be wrapped up before our rotors are ready to ship

Hey my GL450 rotor set up works perfectly. If anyone interested I have spare set which I accidentally ordered. $80/ea shipped. I will include the hub centric rings to make this fit perfectly into your S4.

Our rotors are NOW in stock and ready to ship. We have shipped some of the rotor sets and we just ran out of brake lines. So we are delayed on shipping the full kits and the rotor purchasers that got the lines as well. We will get more brake lines next week and be shipping the rotors that had bought the brake line kit and the full BBKs. Unfortunately with any new product sometimes our suppliers take a little time to gear up for a new demand on a part they currently don't sell much of. Once we get more in stock we will do our best to order plenty in advance like we have been doing to keep up and not have a vendor run out again.



We have our hardware kit finalized. We made custom 16mm stainless steel sleeves that fit snuggly in the 16mm opening on the calipers. Since the bolt for the spindle is only 14mm there is slop. So we developed this setup that will fit tight on both.




Here are the bolt kits in our store, these are in stock and ready to ship -> http://www.jhmotorsports.com/shop/ca...roducts_id=467

Wohoooo , ordered!

[jaybquick@JHM]

Wohoooo , ordered!

Thanks.



FYI everyone we got the lines back as of tomorrow. So all our kits and rotors and just the hardware are ready to go out.

[jaybquick@JHM]

All pre sale orders have shipped and EVERYTHING is in stock as of today.


And we now have a Zinc plated (silver) bolt option for ALL our rotors for those in snow states or those who like the look of silver bolt that will blend in with the hats.

[NYEuroTuner]

This kit rocks, I'll be ordering a set myself in a few weeks.

you guys should make a kit to run the rear Cayenne calipers as well...

[TheyCallMeARI]

On the Pre existing 300mm Big brake kit rotor :) since i already have them hahhaa

[jaybquick@JHM]

We have no problem trying. Anyone got a rear cayenne caliper to send us??? HEHE.

Once we get caught up with other stuff we may look into it. However it wouldn't be too necessary, more of a cosmetic mod since most of the braking is achieved form the fronts. Usually just a larger rotor in the rear with some good pads and stainless lines does the trick.

[TheyCallMeARI]

Jay i purchased the rotors, ss lines and hardware before the kit came out.. i sourced my own calipers.. do you have any links or tutorial pages or pictures on your website that show some pics of the swaping the lines on the calipers for the oem fit?

ya i saw some rear cayenne calipers on ebay for cheap so it got me thinking...

[Raacerx]

I am finally going to do the Touareg 330mm calipers with the C240 Sport rotors Benz rotors. They will fit under the stock 17s I think, which is my goal. I like the stock look. The rotors already come cross-drilled, but they ain't cheap. The ML55 rotors are cheaper in fact, but I don't want to move to 18s.

Hopefully get everything ready to go by next week. Already sourced the calipers, just need to pick em up ($200 for both!!!!!!) and order rotors. Then probably, for ease of installation, order up the JHM bolts and some lines (thanks for offering the parts individually, I am sick of companies like ECS only selling stuff in a package).

The other advantage I see to this setup (for me at least), is that I can always machine some extender/adapters if I want to move to the 345mm or larger rotors in the future.

Brian, if you go Cayenne calipers in the rear, I'd consider buying those 034 adapters back from you!

Just sent you an email. I'd love to see pics of the install also.

[morris400]

check put jhm... i think they now have a complete kit with cayenne calipers, could help you out.

Jay i sent out an email... I wanna get everything in a visual perspective before i start the project on wednesday
thanks
JHM is the best!

Cayenne calipers in the rear?? If so i'm in on that for sure.

[BlkdoutS4]

Cayenne calipers in the rear?? If so i'm in on that for sure.

i've seen sets of front and rear Cayenne calipers on ebay for pretty cheap so I think it would be awesome if JHM or someone made a kit to run the rears since there are so few options for rear brake upgrades on our cars...

[TheyCallMeARI]

Looking forward to pics of the install :)

[jaybquick@JHM]

I emailed pics to those customers who bought rotors or kits from us and emailed us about it.

Thanks again.

[Raacerx]

I finally finished my BBK. Thank you for this thread. It has some of the best information regarding brakes in this whole forum.



I later added a 5mm spacer for peace of mind




BBS require the same

What size rotors are you running?

[Raacerx]

What size rotors are you running?

those would be 330mmx32mm MB 230 Sport rotors. It was was suggested earlier in the thread. I wanted to still be able to use stock wheels for winter and long trips. The BBS are 17" as well.

[awd2ks4]

Looks awesome can't wait to see it and feel that braking power

[massboykie]

I could design the hats myself once I got a set of rotor rings to base the design off of as well. I just dont know how much cheaper that would be.

Hey Pzp

Not sure if this will even help, but did you guys look at these hats and rings from Willwood? ...Not even sure if that would be any cheaper and if they would fit, but they have the measurements etc on there...

http://www.wilwood.com/RotorList1.aspx

Cheers
Massboykie

[pzp107]

It was a possibility in the beginning. I was going to make my own and use an aftermarket rotor ring manufacturer. I called two of them and they were very pricey. Plust hat wouldnt really help any of your guys out. I dont remember if I called wilwood and it could be an option but more than likely they dont have an off the shelf hat that would work. I am sure they have a rotor ring, but then we are talking money to have them make a hat.

[Raacerx]

A few people PM'ed me about what the actual clearance is with stock rims (touareg calipers). This is without any spacer, and actually I didn't have the wheel quite bolted down, so the clearence is actually about 1-2mm better then what you are seeing right there. Its only a few mm's less then the stock clearance. I would be perfectly comfortable driving without a spacer. Its the wheel weights that are more of an issue. The stick-on ones get a bit close to the top of the caliper.

[VegasAIV]

Is there a link to the jhm ss lines? Can't find it on their site

edit: found it in b5 section

[pzp107]

Just buy b7 rs4 lines. I am sure they will cheaper. You can also buy the lines from paragon motorsports. They are the cheapest and you would just get the ones for an a4 to porsche calipers. Its like 3 or 4 from the bottom of the list for the b5 a4.

[tgiblin]

do you have a link?

[sy0296]

so any news on the rear cayenne kit. patiently waiting
