Can I fit boxster"S" calipers to my 1984 carrera.
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help. I wish to fit boxster "S" calipers to my 1984 carrera, both front and rear.
I already have the calipers, but also wish to keep my standard wheels. Wheel spacers are already fitted to fill out the arches. Car is also currently being backdated and upgraded. |

Uummmm. That link specifically says Boxster S will NOT work. Boxster only. Nice try though. :-)

Boxster S == 996 calipers/rotors. Apart from the caliper color, there's no difference.
Dr. Timmins adapted his 996 TT kit and offers a 996 option as well (only difference is the front adapters, IIRC). He says to use the factory rotors intended for those calipers. I believe that the 996 kit requires 17" wheels. The 966TT definitely does.
