I agree with the others that it is definitely a worthwhile upgrade. The biggets issue was that it has taken me a while to get used to the better stopping power, and I keep overbreaking/breaking too early - not a bad problem to have.
I found that there was minimal difference in heel toeing between the non-S and S4 calipers.
I have a set of 993 calipers and they worked fine with the S rotors and the caliper adapter.

IIRC, It was something about the position of the crossover tube that needed to be swapped over. Easy enough to do, I suppose. Does anyone have first hand experience?

Haha, Olli's favourite subject. lol. The only thing is on a stock hp car the GT3's are really overkill for the amount of unsprung weight you increase by IMHO. If you want the added bling factor then go for it!
