    18z Calipers on b8??

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I have a set of 18z Porsche brake calipers that I had on my b6. Now I have a b8 and I'm wondering if I can use these calipers for my b8? what if I use the caliper bracket that ecs tunning sells with their new 19z calipers? Will that work?

    Nope. Someone here (I forgot who) spent a decent amount of time trying to get 18Z calipers to work on our hubs btu had to abandon the project. They're going to need a custom fabricated caliper mount.

    A few people have tried to mount the 18Zs and supposedly the caliper body hits the upright.

    18Zs don't have detachable brackets, either, so that's a no go (plus, there's no way ECS would sell it separately anyway, and you'd still need to find an appropriate rotor)
