Hi All!

I am about to dig into the brakes and have the calipers PC'd. I am wanting to put a larger caliper on the rears (asthetics"why Not"). I know that the big reds have a rear caliper that is the size of the C2 front calipers.

Can anyone tell me if they are the same caliper, ie. if the front C2 caliper will bolt to the rear hub on a C2. I ran into issues before with trying to mount the front big reds on my C2. I then learned of the major differences between a C4 and a C2 platform. Anyways I hope someone with part #'s or experience with this can help me out. I am going to have my calipers PC'd Red and I would really like to have them look about the same size. The fronts to me make the rears look anemic. MTIA! I can do a DIY on it to help others in the future if any would want me to.

Direct for instance question:

Would a Boxster S front caliper be the same as the front caliper on a C2?

Would a Big Red rear caliper mate to a C2 rear hub?

Would a C2 front caliper mate to the rear C2 hub?
