Product details
Upgrade both front brakes with Powerlite four-piston calipers, 11.10-inch vented rotors, BP-10 pads and braided flexlines. The kit reuses the compatible original hubs.
Custom color orders: PMB will confirm your requested finish before the order is finalized.
Vehicle Fitment
| Porsche model | Years | Version / application | Required brake setup |
|---|---|---|---|
| 911 | 1969–1974 | M-type front struts | 3.00-inch (76.2 mm) front caliper mounts; compatible factory hubs and struts |
| 914-6 | 1970–1971 | Factory six-cylinder | 3.00-inch (76.2 mm) front caliper mounts; compatible factory hubs and struts |
Match the brakes and suspension actually fitted to the car. Changed struts, hubs, uprights or previous brake conversions need a separate fitment check.
Measure between the centers of the caliper mounting holes, not across the strut tube. Use the mounting distance specified in the table.
The 914-6 row applies to the factory six-cylinder front setup; it does not establish fitment for a four-cylinder 914 or a car converted to different struts.
A 15-inch wheel may clear, but diameter alone is not enough. Compare the exact wheel’s barrel and spokes with the wheel-clearance drawing before ordering.

What is included
- Two forged aluminum Powerlite four-piston calipers, in the selected finish.
- Two one-piece vented rotor/hat assemblies: HP plain face or SRP drilled and slotted, according to the selected variant.
- BP-10 brake pads for both front calipers.
- Caliper mounting brackets, installation hardware and braided stainless steel front flexlines.
What stays on the car
Retains the existing factory front hubs and compatible M-type struts. New hubs, a master cylinder and rear brake parts are not supplied. Brake fluid and installation consumables are separate. The factory front dust shields must be removed for this installation and are not reinstalled, as specified in Wilwood’s instructions.
| Caliper | Powerlite; four pistons per caliper |
|---|---|
| Rotor size | 11.10-inch diameter × 0.80-inch thickness (nominal 282 × 20 mm) |
| Pad compound | BP-10; pad shape 7912 |
| Mount requirement | 3.00-inch (76.2 mm) M-strut caliper tabs |
Questions before ordering
How do I choose between Powerlite and Superlite?
The Powerlite rotor kit uses 11.10-inch rotors. The Superlite kit uses larger 12.19-inch two-piece rotors and a different caliper. Compare the clearance drawings and your planned front/rear combination before choosing.
Does the kit include both front sides?
Yes. The kit supplies a pair of calipers, the front axle pad set, mounting brackets and hardware, braided stainless flexlines, and two rotors. It is a front axle kit; rear brakes are purchased separately.
Can I keep the original master cylinder?
Wilwood’s installation instructions permit the stock OEM master cylinder for the specified Porsche 911 application. The installer must assess pedal travel and front-to-rear balance for the actual brake combination; do not assume a modified system has stock behavior.

Need help matching your Porsche?
Send PMB your model and year, photos of the existing brakes, and any known suspension changes. For front kits, include the caliper mounting-tab measurement; for rear kits, include the rotor thickness. Contact PMB for help choosing the correct kit.
