I've already changed the pads, and oil pipes, and brake a lot more but I also want a disc slightly larger for the fading and aesthetics.
Leading evidence: 'Replace pads, and oil pipes, and brake a lot more' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace fluid' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I could use my original caliper, by changing only 4 catches for milling 3 mm?

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

ah, you want the bling factor and added weight
What's comical is that if you had 300mm discs you'd want 320's. If you'd had 330mm discs, you'd want 350, and so on and so on................
If you want bling, it's your $$$. I race on stock rotors. With good pads there is plenty of braking power, and heat is not really a big deal, particularly if you upgrade the brake ducts.
The caliper 997 3.6 and 996 are equal ? caliper of the 997 3.8 and 996 turbo, 4s are equal . The pincers of the carrera have a 130 mm while the larger calipers with 140 mm. Got it? I've already changed the pads, and oil pipes, and brake a lot more but I also want a disc slightly larger for the fading and aesthetics. Ok??
When posting guy here questions answered already. But needs to continue question many others. Sometime me understand little why questions repeated. And little if any person can help possibly.
Speg me better. pliers of the 996 turbo, I can not mount them because the two holes is 140 mm and 130 mm as the original calipers. then I would put the disks as girodisc but spend less, you understand?
Still nothing.
I would rec'd posting in a forum where you can type in your native tongue as this is truly a case of lost in translation.
Unsubscribing........
We understand what you are trying to do, and why it is not working for you. We (or at least I) don't understand why you feel the need to do it other than for aesthetics. If your brakes are fading at a DE, you're probably on them too much quite honestly. My stock brakes don't fade when driving at race pace.
If you really feel the need to do something for handling heat, as I've already stated, I'd start by upgrading the brake ducts. You can get GT3 ducts at suncoast. Easy to install, and they will help a bit. You might also consider going to 2 piece rotors. OGRacing sells PFC 2-piece rotors. But honestly, I suspect you would be wasting your money.
I personally believe the OEM brakes are just fine for DE's. Doing what you want to honestly does not compute. The most important is bleeding the brakes often during the DE season. That and your pads are what gives braking power. And do the GT3 ducts..it directs air at the brakes to help cooling. I have learned to do a bleed before every DE. With a Motiv bleeder it is a piece of cake. So a question I have is how often have you bled your brakes? Also some here suggest to bleed before AND after a DE. Thought being why drive around afterwards with dirty fluid. Makes sense.

What do you think if I mount the front discs of 330 * 24 996 turbo? I could use my original caliper, by changing only 4 catches for milling 3 mm? and 'a good idea?
Making modifications like that to your brakes for aesthetic reasons is a terrible idea in my opinion. I'm guessing that you need to do this because the rotors you want to use are thicker than stock and thus won't fit between the stock calipers? If so, then you will not be able to fit new brake pads in there either.
Why do you want to mess with something that your life depends upon just so it looks "better"? Paint your calipers red, and you will get a more obvious visual affect with no risk to life and limb. Put the GT3 brake ducts on to get a little more cooling. Change your fluid to Motul or SRF. Put some PFC97 brake pads on. DON'T hack away at your calipers!
Thanks for the advice I have already put the new brake hoses el oil. If stock and leave behind the mountains are 330 to 299 instead of braking imbalance?
