    Ever wonder how to restore the steel brake calipers on your classic Porsche to that sharp, golden zinc-plated finish? Or perhaps your late-model aluminum calipers need fresh paint? PMB Performance specializes in all things brakes, especially brakes from our favorite automaker.

    Nice video and work however just to be clear the first Porsche to receive red calipers was the RoW 1992 Turbo S Lightweight followed by the 1994 turbo with the big 928 calipers painted red with the feeds and bleeds swapped. The 993 Turbo also had the same front brakes.

    Eric Shea and his team are the best!!! Highly recommend them! They are restoring and building my 911 safari and it’s been a Fantastic Experience working with them.

    Classic example of an organic evolution of a needed service/business, ie., "build it and they will come!"

    Wonderful video Eric! Did you pick the background music being from the music industry? Haven't forgotten to send my rears plus the proportioning valve to you. Getting close to the brake portion of my project. Stay tuned....

    had the calipers on my 87 carrera rebuilt by PMB and was very impressed with the quality, turn around time, and customer service. May be sending the 996TT calipers in now that I see how that process is done

    Eric helped me rebuild my 912 calipers way back when he was working in his garage in Sandy, Utah. Thanks Eric, they still work flawlessly.

    Love these “behind the curtain” videos!
    I wish PMB did core exchanges. There was a company that used to do it for Z cars. You would order a set of calipers painted the color you wanted, pay an additional “core charge”, get your new calipers, send back the old ones and have your “core charge” refunded upon receipt by the vendor.

      Hey, i actually work here so I can shed some insight. We do core exchanges at PMB on steel calipers. Early 911s up to the g model, 914s, 356s, stuff like that. We don't do cores on aluminum calipers because aluminum can vary too greatly in condition.

    Great video. Love to see how this stuff is done. Lots more work than it would seem.

  • @TonyMajo

    What's the average turn around time for a rebuild? You said 3-5 days in the video. Is that from time of receipt or once the work starts?

    • @quote0951
      @quote0951 Год назад

      The 3-5 day time is from the day they go into receiving to the day they leave shipping. It's a really fast turn around. Painted calipers or specialty stuff can take longer though.

      What do they do if the piston or the bore is scored? These are pretty, but don’t seem address wear of pistons or slides?

    • @quote0951
      @quote0951 Год назад +1

      @@robertlittiken394 we've got tons of extra nose/back sections and new pistons if the customer's caliper is functionally damaged usually steel calipers don't have substantial bore damage unless something really bad has happened to the calipers in the past. On aluminum calipers they can be epoxy treated to stop leaks in the bore
