Movit makes nice stuff. Can't tell much more without specifics, they offered a bunch of different sizes & types, front & rear.

Initially they offered brake conversion sets based on the brembo made 993 turbo brake setup with adapters to the original Porsche brake discs. Later they started to offer other dimensions on newer 6 piston + calipers also usually based on brembo parts

€8730 w/o VAT

The photo of the car in the first post could be a substantially different (read: smaller) setup than the €10k setup quoted above.

I think 396mm brakes require at least 19" wheels, possibly 20"? Odd this wasn't mentioned anywhere in the documentation.

On their website they list much smaller brakes for pre 92 model.

1992 means nothing. Makes me wonder how well they know the 124 chassis. Early vs late LCA makes a difference, but this varies with both engine type and production date (not year, 92 vs 93).

Kinda looks like 342mm fronts work with early LCA's only, and 396mm fronts require late LCA's.

I believe Movit offered other sizes in the past. I think what's shown above are their current offerings. Hopefully the car you bought has markings on the rotor or caliper so you can figure out what the are without needing to remove the rotors and measure them.

I corespondent with Movit many moons ago, before I got the SA kit and they told me that their smallest kit would require 18” wheels, and we were discussing the fitment for the 036. I don’t recall the sizes though.
