Jens Hansen, of Hansen Motorsport, is a great guy. I spent an afternoon at his house the last time I was in Germany and had a wonderful time. He does some really nice stuff with T3s and such in Germany. I can highly recommend him to anyone looking for some high-end braking.

These are for those who are really serious about their brakes, and in particular for those fitting powerful engines. That is the Hansen Motorsport Porsche kit for all 4 wheels, and Hansen also makes custom kits. My Hansen 993 kit is on order, with adaptors to fit wheels with 5x114.3 PC. -- Andrew Grebneff Dunedin New Zealand Fossil preparator <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Seashell, Macintosh, VW/Toyota van nut
