Suggestion

To run a 380mm on a 996TT I am fairly sure you will need PCCB calipers from a 997TT or GT car due to the larger caliper spacing required to allow the rotor to clear edges of the caliper.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Came across a set of Brembo 380mm hats/rotors. looking to build a new braking setup for the car. I run 19" HREs and looking to use as much used OEM Porsche parts as possible. I've see a couple of successful swaps withe the 970 Panamera calipers and other parts, and trying to keep from going back to aftermarket branded parts. ANY help/tips would be helpful.

POST 2Original post

Any reason not to go up to 350mm from the 997TT? The running cost would be much lower and would work with your own calipers. To run a 380mm on a 996TT I am fairly sure you will need PCCB calipers from a 997TT or GT car due to the larger caliper spacing required to allow the rotor to clear edges of the caliper.

POST 3Original post

Do you have any links to these people using panamera Calipers? I might be selling my 997.2 380 pccb calipers with oem brackets bc I’m swapping to brembo rolex calipers on my 996 which has Alcon calipers on it. So those will go to my 996tt that has the 997.2 380 front calipers and rear calipers.
