Default 79+ OB front rotors NLA

Is there a source for early 928 front rotors 78-82? Or are we upgrading to later front brake systems?

You can only get them from Porsche right now.

It's one of the reasons I got rid of them and stuck on 993 calipers and front rotors on my 81.

Thanks for responses.

I have found none available, for front brakes. The Rose Passion are the later model 32mm wide. Early are like 21mm wide. i did buy several rear rotors, while available. Caliper rebuild parts are available.

Good news is these cars get low miles, but some will need rotors eventually. I guess I will have to upgrade to 86ish, 32mm rotors, calipers, spindles...

I installed Big Blacks on my 79 with the 928MS caliper adapters and the ln 993TT Girodisc rotors fit perfectly.


Big Blacks with 993TT rotors (maybe 322mm if memory from 8 years ago is right)

Girodisc 2-piece front rotors

Did same design Powerslot e-coated 1 piece rear rotors with S4/GT/GTS rear calipers

Big calipers look and fit great in the 18" wheels

928 351 041 09 certainly NOT NLA.
I have two in stock.
Porsche has 10 in the USA and 94 in Germany.

Aren't those rotors the same size as 944 fronts?

Thank you Roger,
Unfortunately these are expensive units, but glad to know they are available. Will order two from Santa.
