[mzafeer76]

Hiya

i have a 2000 year c70 t5 now for sometime i have thinking of upgrading the brake disc and calipers now i have heard that porsche caliper somehow can fit but i am not sure which ones i have had a look on ebay theres some nice porsche 996 4 pot calipers going cheap would these be suitable 4 my car and is there anything else i need to consider b4 buying?
i have 17s on my car and the disc are 283mm which i want to upgrade to 302mm

Look forward to the response..

Thanks

To upgrade from 280mm to 302mm has nothing to do with the Porsche BBK, it's done using standard Volvo parts.

You'd need the 302mm carrier (the bracket that the caliper is mounted to), longer brake hoses and the 302mm discs. You re-use your existing caliper.

If you did want to go for a Porsche BBK, I don't believe it will fit under the standard 17" Canisto alloys on a C70.

You can run the 302 disc with the porsche caliper if you have the correct carriers made for your application.
