(Noobie) Looking to use brakes on Saab.

Hey all, I was wondering if anybody can help me out.

Basically:
I want big red "Porsche" brakes on my Saab 900SE.

Details:
I have a fairly healthy '95 Saab900SE. My current brakes are stock calipers, with EBC Greenstuff pads, and Zimmerman X drilled rotors.
Full upgrades for the car run between $900, and $2,500 dollars.
I have always liked the look of those large red calipers, with "Porsche" in white. I plan on ordering a unit, and fabbing up a mounting bracket.

Questions:
Does anybody have a beat up used front Caliper, lying around they wanna sell?

Does anybody have measurements and possibly a diagram to how the units mount?

I have PN for the S and non S cars. Which ones would be the red ones? S I am guessing? G996 357 426 11 and G996 357 425 11.

Is $350 a fair price for one unit new?

I don't have measured specs for the mounting points for the stock saab calipers, but here is a link to my last procedure.

Hey Tweek's Turbos,

the first time i replied to your post I thought u were confused, but now this is weired. This forum is strictly Boxster. Not even any other Porsche's! go to automotive.com or some other forum for your SAAB inquiries. I can't say it any other way but, WE DON'T GIVE A FUDGE ABOUT SAABS. No swedish cars here, only German and specifically Porsche. SAAB is the Honda of Europe so you probablly find some good answers on foreign boards.
