The dimensions are:
Base Front Disc 298mm x 24mm, Pistons in Calipers 2x40,2x36 mm , pad area 216 cm^2

S Front Disc 319mm x 28mm, Pistons in Calipers 2x40,2x36 mm, pad area 254 cm^2

and as for the front calipers I believe they are exactly the same.

yes it is possible to switch to S calipers and rotors. you need both. the calipers are bigger than the base and as you know the rotor as well, I belive you need a spacer to mount the caliper to the base axle mount
