I have a 2018 C2 Coupe with 20" S wheels. I tracked the car in September for the first time and I'd like to do an inexpensive front brake upgrade.
Is it possible or has anyone here put S front rotors on a base car with an adapter to space the calipers out to accommodate the larger diameter rotors?
I used to have a 997.2 and if I remember correctly there was someone on that forum that upgraded with spacers made at a machine shop and longer caliper bolts.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cheers, Scott

The sweep area for S pad and base pads are different. So for best result, GiroDisc is the only company that make rotors specific for the base.

Suggestion for tracking;
get Girodisk rotors and ask specifically for the one designed for base and 12mm spacers
get Tarett Engineering caliper stud kit and brake line bracket studs to make change over easier
get good track pads, when you get good, OEM pads don’t last long on track
first time you remove wear sensor, cut lines 1 inch from bracket plug on sensor side and tie wires together, cover with electrical tape.

You dont need need to upgrade caliper, plenty of capacity in those.
Make sure you have brake cooling ducts, not sure if base came with those. The T have them.
