996 Rear Caliper/ Disc

Chris,

If you are just trying to improve the rear brake I just fitted some FA47 EBC pads,

They appear to be very soft and wear out very quickly but they actually make the rear wheel rear slow down, even lock it if ya want to without standing up on the brake lever!

about £12 - 14 a set

I'm not sure of the spec's but apparently you can use the 'prillia RSV rear caliper and master cylinder. Both use bigger piston sizes. I'd guess the rear caliper is a 34mm (ST?) rather than 32mm and the master up to 13mm from 11mm??
The discs and caliper on the RS monster are also bigger so maybe a parts bin raid could sort it? You'd need the RS carrier to though.

The pad option Ray mentioned maybe worth a look at to, along with maybe a wavey type disc?

Thanks for the info, will look into pads then will check out what calipers will fit.
Cheers Chris.
