They're definitely not standard, but I can't see any adaptors and the handbrake etc. is still in place and working. Can anyone tell me what I have as I'd like to order new pads and I am unsure which ones to get. Thanks.

Front Rotor/Caliper


Front Pad


Rear Rotor/Caliper


Rear Pad
Those are the same brakes as were used on 964 3.3t
front is not the "big black" it is a variant of the 993 normal front caliper, the pad is a Pagid U1204 which is narrower than the Big Red/Black U1842 pad. It is different from the 993 front caliper in that it has a built in mount extensions for use on 322x32mm rotors, the 993 caliper w/o the extensions is used on a 304x32mm rotor

the rear is a variant on the 964/993 small Brembo rear caliper, it uses U1203 pads, same as 930's did and also same as 964 fronts. This caliper has the larger 30/34mm pistons and is wideer than the other rear calipers for use on 299x28mm rotors as opposed to the 299x24mm used on other models.

What you have is the stock brake setup for your car or for a 964 3.3t
