letting the secret out of the bag regarding this...

very reasonable and rear uses stock rotors.
im thinking about going this direction whenever i have to up-size my wheels.

I got very poor service from vdubengineering, I would be careful ordering from them. Xschop has been a major contributing player in the community and I'll gladly pay a premium for his quality parts

Can the NA boxster calipers take a 28mm thick rotor? I know the Boxster-S calipers do as I have built a few kits with them.
I should be getting a mock-ups soon of yet another combo using the Wildwood dynapro radial mount forged calipers and a custom 302x28 rotor that I machined to fit the Early NA spindles.
I also just finished 996T calipers on 951 spindles with cayenne 330 rotors and I like the Porsche monoblocks being made now....prob is they carry Porsche $ tag

I know 1-2 mm can be ground off the inner pins on 996 calipers and wanted to know if that's the case for boxster calipers. I also may have found a 330x 28 rotor that will go over the early hub without having to machine its outer diameter.

I'd love to run a bigger rotor if possible!

Has anyone tried the rear Cayenne rotor over an Early hub yet?
This would be a bolt-on break thru to an inexpensive Early big brake swap without having to machine and compromise the Early hub's strength.
