This is not a probability of success.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone know if the Porsche GT3/PCCB 6-pot front calipers will fit a standard C4S/TT ie. a complete bolt-on or does it require a replacement hub carrier? Migration info. Legacy thread was 105008

POST 2Original post

You will need a replacement hub carrier. It's the same upgrade when moving from the Mk1 GT3 4 pots (identical to the C4S/TT) to the 6pot upgrade. If you are planning to upgrade to Alcons at the same time, IIRC the cost is about £2.5k all in. Migration info. Legacy thread was 105022

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Ade. I wonder how much of a DIY job it is? I can replace the discs, calipers etc myself but the hub carrier is the unknown. Migration info. Legacy thread was 105055

POST 4Original post

Well, it didn't look very complicated when I watched Steve McHale change mine over. It took about 3 hours for both sides with me chatting with him constantly and watching him take his time. Obviously he had all the right tools at his disposal, and the car was up on the ramp to allow easy access... don't forget to take the chance to bleed the brake fluid - maybe a good time to flush/refill with SRF? Migration info. Legacy thread was 105127

POST 6Original post

All in the interests of research and being a good customer! :wink: Not at all complicated - you just need to take your time and know what you are doing... Migration info. Legacy thread was 105273
