The wheel carrier might be different the TT is 4WD and the C2S is 2WD.

+1, Suncoast sells an upgrade kit, uses GTS calipers and hanger, and TT rotors.

Are 997TT and 996gt3 has the same brakes?

Find on Suncoast site:
Providing massive amounts of braking power for wide-body cars, this kit will impress on the street or track. Using factory parts, you can upgrade to the Porsche 6-Piston front brake system that is found on the GT3. The rotor size size is increased, from 330 mm to 350 mm. This will fit wide body cars only (see the fitment chart below).

This kit comes complete with front pads, rotors, red calipers, mounting hardware. All parts are OEM Porsche Parts, no modifications are necessary.

Front Fitment:
Carrera Turbo (996) - 2001-2004.5
Carrera 4S (996) - 2002-2004.5
Carrera 2S (997) - 2005 or newer
Carrera 4S (997) - 2005 or newer

That is the kit that I was referring to, Suncoast is not too specific as to which GT3 they are from, but did confirm that it is not a perfect swap of TT or GT3 parts, they are currently working on a kit for the rear that will match the front.

If you want to improve the brakes on your car, you could also go with Brembo GT. They come in 350mm and 380mm sets.

I saw Brembo kits, its wery good. I have them on my Cayeenne, 405 front and 380 rear. My friends TT has less 60 miles and buy PCCB. They are new, anв they in stock. Brembo is only preorder in Russia and price will be aroun 7 kEuro (2 k$ for TT kit for me)

I am sure that you can use parts of the TT kit, but I am certain that it isn't a direct fit. Perhaps some custom work might be in order to make it work. Do you have a good relationship with your local Porsche dealer?

The Brembo's are pricey, but very good products. You should find out how much some of the sponsors charge, I am certain that they can ship to Russia.

Thanx!

My 2006 C2S is a CPO car. The original owner had PCCB's but he didn't like them so the dealership replaced them with brakes from the Turbo.
The dealership told me that "the Turbo brakes are larger, they use a 6 piston caliper with 42% more pad area. The rotors cool more also about 14% more, actual better than the ceramics... just not as light."
I've had the car at the track several times now and the brakes are awesome.
I would have preferred the PCCB's, but they just weren't available.
To accommodate the larger brakes the car needs these rims:

Thanx for reply!
Rims are nessasary? You think TT brakes will not work with 19 inch Carrera S "Lobsters"?

I think I will upgrade my car during winter. Lightweight rims, Pss10, swaybars, rollcage and GT3 seats, carbonfiber doors, fenders, bumbers and SC kit for more power and torque So I need better brakes

I don't know the answer. I assumed that the dealership that installed the Turbo brakes put those rims on because they were the only ones that would fit but, as I said, that is an assumption on my part. FWIW, the rims are nice, they're just a b*tch to keep clean.
