    Can you identify these brakes?

    Hi,
    The PO told me that he had upgraded the brakes on my 1970 T but was a bit sketchy on the details. More specifically the problem was related to me not speaking German and him not being able to speak English. However, I'm trying to piece together exactly what's been done to it over the years and suspect the drilled disks are not the original 1970 items.

    Calipers are either the standard M or else A calipers from a Carrera. Rotor is stock diameter but drilled. What is the disc thickness?

    Hi,
    The discs are 20 mm thickness.

    Then those are M calipers. I think the seller was just referring to the drilled discs, which is not really much of an upgrade.

    A 1970 911T might have had only solid rotors, so an upgrade to vented rotors & calipers would help heat dissipation.
