Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I installed a smaller version of those around my IMSB.
Leading evidence: 'Install smaller version of those around my imsb' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Install smaller version of those around my imsb' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I wanted to post here to save some poor newb soul coming on here touting that it knocked off 30ft to his braking distance.

I predict at least 4 pages of the usual **** obsessive Rennlist analysis and bench theories, followed up by someone asking if these can be painted to match their calipers.
Clearly the cooling fin mod lacks a few essential features:
a. The fins are not oriented optimally to ensure that the air flow around the wheel maximizes heat removal.
b. Cross-drilling the fins will improve performance. Or should they be slotted instead?
c. The absence of the proper, Porsche-approved heat transfer paste between the caliper body and the fins suggests shoddy installation worksmanship and could even lead to degraded performance relative to unmodified calipers.
Alpine003...here's the start of your "**** obsessive" posts. LOL
Thanks for the link. I didn't know about this awesome site. A one stop shop for sure.
I've had to restrain myself and start off with small order at first.
I guess they're also out of Unicorn Semen as I didn't see any on the site.
Wrong forum!!
That is obviously from a 964 or 993 being the fins are air cooler.
The 996 version of this mod has the pads water jacketed with plumbed lines to the radiator.
Thanks guys this thread made me laugh
summer ideas of a road trip for a cultural dance experience topped up on blinker fluid after all I wouldn't want to be caught short of essential supplies
