You T guys should look at adapting the GT3 PCCBs - the COMPLETE kit that includes 4 rotors, 4 calipers, pads, hardware and wear sensors can be had for around $12,279.02 - these are all OEM Porsche GT3 parts - quite a value. Porsche offers this as an upgrade set for the GT3 - PN 99204460000. Eurospares has the best price I've found, but Silversprings Porsche and Sunset both have good pricing as well . .

I don't know as all my cars are CL, except my new 992 S donor car . . I have a few sets of these, so let me see how the match up to the S hubs . .

I'm sure the GT3 versions could be adapted if you have 20" plus wheels - shouldn't be that difficult, and there are a ton of options for the GT3.

Three Wheelin'
Wheel carrier alone from GT3 is a dealbreaker. Trust me, looked into it. I settled for the 2nd best option. Still ended up costing me quite a bit more but I got what will fit.

I don't think you would need to use the GT3 wheel carriers - calipers bolt up more-or-less the same way, so possibly just an adapter bracket to mount the calipers.

The other issue is the front pad shape these cars take isn't available in the recommended RSC1 compound on the front, it is on the rear though. Running RS29 on the front would be totally fine, just not as ideal as it will dust a little more. Bear in mind, that most of your brake dust comes from the iron rotor, so by switching to ceramics you are eliminating 70% or better of the potential dust you would get.
If we had enough orders together, I could likely get some 8074 front pads made in RSC1. I typically have to order 20-25 sets to add a different compound. Contact if interested.

Thanks for the update Rick! I would be willing to test fit and I'm mechanically inclined to do so. I would be good for 2 sets of the RSC1 pads if we can get another 20 or so on board. Perhaps reaching out within the two primary Carrera T FB groups would help as well. Might get enough interest.

Come to think of it...not available for 992.2 Base either.... but is a $10k option for 992.2 GTS!
But for the 992.2 GTS PCCB option, the carbon rotor diameter has been increased to:
- 420 mm discs (front)
- 410 mm discs (rear)
- with 10 piston front calipers
- 410 mm discs (front)
- 390 mm discs (rear)
- with 6 piston front calipers
- Rear calipers remain 4 piston
I'm guessing the Porsche retrofit pricing for the new 422/410mm-10 piston over the counter upgrade will be over $20K

For those of you who are curious - I fitted both the 992 GT3 Steel rotors and PCCBs up to the hubs on my 2022 992 Carrera S - perfect fit. The calipers have a wider bolt pattern, but would be a very simple adapter to make, that is if one doesn't already exist. My recollection is that there is already a 991 gen adapter out there for this exact application, and I think the calipers are the same bolt pattern.
As far as I can tell, the PCCBs for the GT3 are the least expensive option out there for carbon brakes (that is as long as Porsche offers the GT3 retrofit kit), and there are also a ton of GT3 steel upgrade options as well as the ST carbon rotors. I think this is worth a look if you are looking to upgrade brakes on any of the 992 gen Carreras.

The front rotor is on the wrong side, but you get the idea . . . .
