Porsche 911 Carrera 4 (996) 1998–2002 Performance Parts & Upgrades
The Porsche 911 Carrera 4 (996) adds all-wheel drive to the water-cooled 996 Carrera, sending drive to the front axle as well as the rear. The 996.1 Carrera 4 was sold new in Australia from 1998 to 2002, and later 996.2 cars are here as imports. This page lists the parts we stock for it, including AST, Öhlins and MOTON coilovers made for the Carrera 4, HARDRACE and SPL arms, Brembo and AP Racing big brake kits, Frenkit rebuild kits and a Wavetrac front differential.

Popular upgrades for the Carrera 4 996
- Coilovers: AST, Öhlins Road & Track and MOTON kits built for the all-wheel drive 996 (Carrera 4, 4S and Turbo).
- Arms and bushings: HARDRACE caster, lower and toe arms and camber kits, and SPL trailing arms, dogbone links and solid aluminium subframe bushings.
- Brakes: Brembo GT, GT-S and Pista front big brake kits, the AP Racing CP9660 kit and Frenkit caliper rebuild kits.
- Drivetrain and fuel: Wavetrac limited slip differential for the front axle and a Radium Engineering fuel filter kit.
- Links and alignment: SPL and Torque Solution adjustable end links and SPL eccentric lockout kits.
Choosing the Right Part
- Carrera 4 or Carrera: the front drive shafts change the front suspension, so coilovers are sold in Carrera 4 versions. Don't fit a Carrera 2 kit.
- 996.1 or 996.2: arms and bushings fit both, but check the brake kit and fuel parts against your build year.
- Front or rear diff: the Wavetrac Z64-Z96 diff is for the front axle of all-wheel drive 996s, not the rear gearbox.
Installation
Suspension arms, coilovers and brakes should be fitted by a qualified workshop, followed by a wheel alignment and a brake bleed and road test. A limited slip differential is a gearbox job for a Porsche specialist. Always follow the maker's instructions and torque settings.
