not sure; maybe a few experienced guys have done this. Have you tried a search in that specific Pcar forum?
I noticed you're in Naperville. I usually travel a couple times a year to visit
family ( in-laws, nieces and nephews).

You would need to buy the kit from Instant G (Steve Timmins) as you need a different hub and the adaptors for the front calipers ...
He supplies the new hubs with bearings as well as the front and rear adaptors and you would also want to replace your master cylinder with a 23mm unit !
I've got 996TT brakes on my 89 and it was a great improvement over stock !
For what it's worth,you would have to do the rear as well because there's a lot more front brake bias due to the size of the 996TT front caliper pistons,it just wouldn't work with the stock rear calipers and rotors.
Cheers !
