Once the wheel is removed you only need a selection of hand tools. 13mm socket, some flat head screw drivers or leaver bars, a punch and a hammer. This job can be done in under 2 hours for both sides.
Always pump the brake pedal several times until it's hard before driving off for the first time. On the first drive out, take it easy leaving extra space between you and other vehicles. Apply the brakes firmly until a firm pedal feel returns. listen for any grinding noises which would indicate something isn't correct. Brake pads squeaking is sometimes quite common and can be caused by the friction material, there's no cause of concern if the brakes release freely, its just annoying....
Brakes are an integral part of the vehicle and any work on the braking system should only be performed by a competent person. Failure to do so could case serious harm or death to yourself or others.

Really useful video, helped me with a recent disc and pad change on my 987, thanks very much
Don't you have vibration pads between the pad and the pistons.?
Nope, I haven’t got them on this setup, they’re optional if you want to fit as they help with reducing brake squeaks. Most pads will come with a sticky back plate instead.
I'm interested in your caliper/brake disc set up. Could you let me know what car they're off? Thanks Paul.
Hi Paul, set up is from the 996 GT3, wheel carrier, hubs, calipers, discs. Hope that helps
