It was my understanding that the 964 received the larger RS or 993 style rear calipers starting in 1993. The perportioning valve was also changed from the pre-93 setting of around 45% ratio ti 55% rear ratio.
Regarding the rear brakes, the Carrera RS/993 caliper (same caliper) was only available on the Carrera RS, in the 964 non-Turbo models. More specifically, the 92+ C2/C4 rear caliper has pistons sized at 30mm/28mm while the Carrera RS/993 caliper has pistons sized at 34mm/30mm. They both use the same size 299mmx24mm rotor (although the RS rotor has holes, while the C2/C4 rotor is solid/vented), and they use the same size 44mmx98mm brake pad.

Is the wire harness and ABS override switch available? And if so where can you get it?
That harness, from Porsche Motorsport, in August when I priced it, was 973 Euro, through Gert. The switch is a standard Bosch switch, available in Europe. Bosch part number 0 340 006 012. Unless you're also wiring up a battery disconnect switch, it may be more cost effective to get the switch and run the two wires needed to the central electrics.
