Another STOMSKI RACING original, this ingenious tool is designed primarily for the "younger" Porsches (Caymans, Boxsters, Cayennes, 996s, 997s, GT3s, etc.) that are experiencing pulled threads in the aluminum suspension parts where the brake calipers bolt up (usually in the rear).
The SR152 fixture adjusts from a bolt hole spacing of 4.5" to about 6.5" allowing application for a wide range of vehicles.
It comes complete with 4 different bushings to help align the tool, and then guide all the tools of the TimeSert M12 kit (sold separately).
Hydra tec lubricant for maintenance work and protection Textar
Available in 75ml Tube or 5ml Sachet
The Advantages of Hydra Tec:
- Facilitates the installation of hydraulic brake components
- Tested compatibility with commercially available braking fluids (DOT3, DOT4, DOT4LV, DOT5.1)
- Free of mineral oils and compatible with EPDM rubber
- In addition, running surfaces are protected against corrosion
Hydra Tec is suitable for lubricating:
- Cylinder running surfaces
- Pistons
- Sealing elements
Application:
Apply a thin layer of Hydra Tec on the marked sections.
Note:
Hydra Tec should be applied thinly and evenly.
Never use mineral oils or greases as substitutes.
Do not apply the product on friction surfaces of brake pads or brake discs.

Porsche Brake Caliper Upgrades | Design911 High-Performance Braking Systems for Enhanced Power & Control
Brake caliper upgrades are one of the most effective ways to improve stopping power, heat management, and pedal feel on your Porsche. Upgraded calipers deliver greater clamping force, increased fade resistance, and improved modulation — essential for high-performance driving, track use, or spirited road driving. Over time, standard calipers can wear, lose efficiency, or no longer meet the demands of enhanced engine performance or modern braking expectations. Upgrading ensures your Porsche stops as impressively as it accelerates.
At Design911, we supply a comprehensive range of Porsche brake caliper upgrades, including lightweight multi-piston calipers, performance-focused big brake kits, and caliper enhancements engineered for precision, strength, and long-term reliability. These components offer significant improvements in brake balance, durability, and thermal stability — ideal for performance builds, restorations, and motorsport preparation.
What Do Upgraded Brake Calipers Do?
High-performance calipers provide superior braking capability through advanced engineering, better materials, and optimised piston configurations.
Core Functions:
• Increase clamping force on the brake pads for stronger stopping power.
• Disperse heat more effectively, reducing brake fade.
• Improve pedal modulation and braking consistency.
• Support larger brake discs for enhanced cooling.
• Deliver firmer, more confident braking at high speeds.
Upgraded calipers ensure your Porsche benefits from greater control, performance, and reliability in demanding driving conditions.
Why Do Standard Brake Calipers Fail or Underperform?
Brake calipers operate under intense pressure and heat, making them prone to wear and degradation over time.
Common Causes of Underperformance Include:
• Corrosion or pitting affecting piston movement.
• Seal deterioration leading to leaks or sticking pistons.
• Heat saturation causing brake fade under heavy load.
• Flexing or deformation in older caliper bodies.
• Limited clamping force on performance-enhanced vehicles.
When calipers fail or underperform, braking distances increase, pedal feel deteriorates, and safety is compromised — making an upgrade essential for performance-focused drivers.
Why Upgrade Your Porsche Brake Calipers?
Design911’s high-performance caliper upgrades provide substantial improvements in power, durability, and driving confidence. Whether you drive on road, track, or mountain routes, upgrading ensures precision braking in any environment.
Key Benefits:
• Stronger, more consistent braking performance.
• Improved heat resistance and reduced fade.
• Enhanced pedal feel and modulation.
• Designed for modern performance expectations.
• Lightweight options for reduced unsprung mass.
• Compatible with performance discs, pads, and braided hoses.
Design911’s Porsche brake caliper upgrades offer unparalleled braking strength and stability — transforming your vehicle’s stopping confidence and overall driving experience.
Highlights
• High-performance caliper upgrades for classic and modern
Porsche models.
• Multi-piston caliper options for superior braking force.
• Enhanced heat dissipation and fade resistance.
• Precision-engineered for direct or kit-based installation.
• Ideal for track, fast-road, or high-power builds.
• Fully compatible with performance brake discs and pads.
