Trying to source a set of PCCB brakes for my 996 turbo. Will 997 calipers and rotors fit?

yes. they are the same as the 996gt3 6 pots in the front (assuming you are talking about the TT, not the gt3 which are 380mm rotors and different calipers), The 997 rear calipers are a newer design, but with bigger pistons. Most guys upgrade to a 997gt3 master cylinder to keep the pedal travel from increasing. Be warned, you will mess up PSM unless you add a brake proportioning valve as well... some guys on here sell the brake lines and proportioner as a kit for a couple bucks, ask flewis763. the rotors are 350mm, same as steel from a 997tt. Don't buy anything from a gt3, they have a different offset and won't work.

maybe post what you are thinking of buying. If they are off a turbo, you should be good to go, if they come from a gt3, its a no go on the front. Unless you want to do some serious work.

I want to add PCCB to my 996 turbo. I have the rear rotors already. Need all the front items and want to make sure what fits.
