A quick search on "boxster + caliper*" will yield a lot of answers

For a decent bias you could fit standard (non-S) Boxster fronts on Carrera 3.2 rotors. You'd need Carrera 3.2 rear calipers on 3.2 rotors too. Adapters are needed to fit the Boxster calipers to the early struts.

Mr.bch on this forum posted his plans for DIY adapters.
