Brembo Gran Turismo High-Capacity Front Big Brake Kit for Porsche 930 (1978–1979) | 8011A Series

This Brembo Gran Turismo High-Capacity Front Big Brake Kit (8011A series) upgrades the front braking system on Porsche 930 (1978–1979) with a fixed 4-piston Brembo caliper and 355mm x 32mm two-piece rotor setup. It replaces the factory components with a system that maintains consistent clamping force and improves heat control during repeated braking, where the original 930 brakes tend to fall off.

This configuration is typically used on street-driven and performance-oriented 930 builds where the factory system starts to show fade during repeated use, but with additional thermal capacity compared to smaller brake packages. The larger rotor mass and stiffer caliper help keep pad contact even and pedal response stable during back-to-back stops. It’s a common upgrade when refreshing worn factory brakes or improving confidence under harder driving without stepping into a full 6-piston setup.

When it comes to bigger brakes, Brembo is the name most people end up at for a reason. This kit includes a pair of GT 4-piston cast monobloc radial mount calipers loaded with Brembo FM1000 pads set up for street and performance use. It’s paired with high carbon two-piece rotors—available in Cross Drilled, TY1, or TY3 configurations depending on the selected variant—with corrosion-resistant plating, along with Goodrich braided lines and CNC billet radial mounting hardware.

Add it up—4-piston calipers, larger two-piece rotors, braided lines, and the mounting hardware to tie it all together. This is the step up when you need more thermal capacity than entry-level kits without moving into a full multi-piston high-capacity system.

Fitment & Compatibility

Fits Porsche 930 models from 1978–1979. This kit replaces the factory front braking system with a Brembo caliper and larger rotor package.

IMPORTANT: Before you purchase a Brembo Performance or Racing Brake system you should always confirm that the vehicle's wheels have adequate clearance, regardless of wheel size.
