Rear S brakes on base car if e-brake removed?

[Escy]

If you swap the lot, the S hub uses a larger wheel bearing so you need use different axles.

The S discs and calipers will just bolt on if you don't care about the handbrake. It's a negligible upgrade, couple of mm thicker and larger disc. Not worth losing the handbrake over in my opinion.

I've just cobbled together a big brake upgrade on the rear of mine using 991 GT3 Cup discs (380mm) and Lotus Evora 400 calipers.

WOW! That looks amazing. Do those fit under a 17” wheel? What are you running in the front? What kinda power do you have? This seems like a massive setup

I bought 19's just to clear the brakes. Up front i've got 991 GT3 Cup discs (380x34) with Brembo 8 pots (Audi R8).

My car is 405bhp, 475ft/lb currently, should see a bit more when I tune for methanol.

Do you have a build thread? I gotta see this.
