Brembo Brake Caliper set from Porsche Cayenne Turbo

Does the Brembo Brake Caliper from Porsche Cayenne Turbo fit our X5?
They are 6 Pistons in the front and 4 Pistons in the rear.

thanks

i would really like to know this as well. my uncle has a big junkyard where he only holds high end vehicles, and there was a cayenne gemballa gt450 there the other day with brembo drilled rotors. I wanted to see if the whole entire big brake kit would fit on my 3.0. I know i have clearance for the caliper with my 20" wheels, but if i need more clearance, i have a set of 22's sitting here in the garage.

Spoke with Brembo. They say call Race Technologies, 714-438-1116.
They say if anyone will know they will.

The kit straight off a cayenne wont fit but remember that the parts are inter-changeable ie the brackets can be got for the X5 seperately the brembo discs are usually two piece again you can get the X5 centres, sort of mix and match.

Brembo standardise as much as they can so the main differences are the mounting brackets and centres of the discs.

I am aware however that the Brembo Big brake kit doesnt fit the ACS type II wheels even the 22 inch. The only way would be by using spacers but be aware of overshooting the arch. So you will need the arch extensions if you aint got them for the ACS and may need them for other types of wheels. I know the Hamman wheels work with Brembo's on the X.

I'm looking for some brake options too.

Porsche is 5x130, we're 5x120 so we'll need new rotors to begin with.

Brembo floating rotors/hats are EXPENSIVE alone!

Check this site. I'm not too familiar with the pricing of brimbo brakes, but this seems reasonable.
