PMNA GT3 caliper stud kit on a Turbo

I would like to move from brake caliper bolts to studs. From the research I gathered, the PMNA GT3 stud kit should work on a Turbo on the rear brakes (where it really matters), but won't fit the front brakes. I have the steel brakes.

Before I order the parts, can anyone confirm or deny this? For consistency, I'd like to do both front and back calipers, but I really care about the rear brakes mainly. The front calipers only come off when I replace the rotors.

There are two types high pedestal and low pedestal wheel carriers. You will need the ones for the low pedestal.

I am running the PMNA rear caliper studs on my car. Works great. I have the 997GT3 PCCB calipers but using Brembo adapters on the front so studs are not needed there. The rear calipers are the same as the red or yellow ones used on the 997TT so they will work on your car. There is really no reason to do the fronts as you don't need to remove the calipers to change pads, unlike the rears.
