Porsche Cayman 981 Performance Parts & Upgrades

The Porsche Cayman (981) was sold new in Australia from 2013 to 2016 as the Cayman, Cayman S and Cayman GTS, with a mid-mounted flat-six driving the rear wheels. It shares its chassis with the 981 Boxster, so most suspension and brake parts fit both. This page lists the parts we stock for the 981 Cayman, including SPL and Suspension Secrets arms and tie rods, Brembo, Paragon and AP Racing big brake kits, Wavetrac differentials, COBB Accessports and filters, and AST, Öhlins and MOTON coilovers.

Popular upgrades for the 981 Cayman
  • Suspension: SPL and Suspension Secrets control arms, toe arms, trailing arms and bump steer tie rods, HARDRACE and Torque Solution end links, and AST, Öhlins and MOTON coilovers and AST springs.
  • Brakes: Brembo GT, GT-S and Pista kits, Paragon 6-piston front and 4-piston rear kits and 2-piece rotors, an AP Racing kit and Frenkit caliper rebuild kits.
  • Drivetrain: Wavetrac limited slip differentials and PDK carrier bearings.
  • Tuning and intake: COBB Accessport V3 in standard and PDK flashing versions, and COBB high flow air filters.
  • Exhaust: Borla cat-back exhausts and an AWE wind diffuser.
Choosing the Right Part
  • PDK or manual: Wavetrac diffs and COBB Accessports come in PDK-specific versions. Check your gearbox before ordering.
  • Cayman or GT4: the GT4 uses different suspension and brakes. Some arm kits exclude the GT4, so shop the GT4 page for those cars.
  • Adaptive dampers: cars with PASM adaptive dampers may need a cancellation kit when fitting coilovers, such as the Öhlins EDC kit.
  • 981 or 718: some parts fit both the 981 and the later 718, but not all. Check the chassis codes in the title.
Installation

Have a qualified workshop fit suspension, brake and drivetrain parts. Get a wheel alignment after any suspension change and bleed and road-test the brakes after brake work. Differential work needs a gearbox specialist; ask us if you're unsure.
