Default Im a little rusty with my Porsche caliper info....
Can we use 993 CARRERA S calipers for our A4's? How about REAR 996 calipers?

Default 986 model range (not the 987 current models)
Part numbers:
986 351 421 03 Left
986 351 422 03 Right

The 03 suffix at the end of the part number denotes that the calipers are BLACK.

IIRC any Boxster non S up to 2004.

(all of this info stolen from a post in the archives, can't remember the source)
