STOP AND GO

Not just go, but also stop. Excellent braking performance has always been the hallmark of Porsche sports cars. Of course, as the years tick by, it’s not just engines and transmissions that suffer wear and tear, but also braking hardware. Heritage Parts Centre, specialists in all things air cooled, are therefore offering these brand new S-type brake calipers for early 911s. Listed as suitable for 911 models from ’69–’77 and Turbo models from ’75–’77, Heritage can also supply the pads, vented discs and even new brake hoses to match, if required. Aluminium bodied with a single 48mm piston, they are sold individually and outright, rather than on an exchange basis. And the best bit? They’re just £199 a pop, including VAT and shipping from www.vwheritage.com.
