Standard braking system.
Positive feature: negative acceleration.
Porsche  brakes  are renowned for 
their stopping power, setting the 
standards for decelerat ion and 
stability. They are designed to 
cope with extreme forces such  
as those experienced during  
hard braking. Perfect for the 911.
The brake calipers have 
a monobloc aluminum 
construction. This makes them 
tough but light and enables a 
rapid response and release of 
the brake. The pedal travel i s 
short and easy to  modulate.
In models with the 3.6-liter 
engine, black anodized, four-
piston, aluminum monobloc fixed 
calipers are used on the front 
and rear axles. The closed-type 
design of these brake calipers 
makes them part icularly stiff.

The front and rear brake discs 
have a diameter 
of 13 inches 
(330 mm)  for outstanding 
 braking performance. 
The S models have four-piston, 
aluminum monobloc calipers 
that are larger, reinforced and 
have a striking red-painted finish. 
The front axle has larger brake 
pads and thicker brake discs.
All models hav e cross-drilled 
brake discs, ensuring optimal 
braking in wet conditions. T he 
discs are internally  vented 
for rapid  heat dispersal.
Other fe atures include a pow erful 
10-inch (254mm) bra k e booster 
for reducing pedal effort i n the 
rear-drive  models, and integral 
air spoile rs for enhanc ed airflow 
in the brake cooling ducts.
For even better braking 
performance with braking force 
support, a 9-inch (229mm) 
t andem brake-force  amplifier is 
used on the all-whe el-drive models.
