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.
