P-parts all the way. More pad surface, vented rotors, thicker pads (less frequent changes), OEM quality vs aftermarket, proper hub center, lighter and sexier.

Kevin,
No worries, this forum is fine for questions. I'm not sure what 968 calipers look like, maybe a picture will help.
For the rear, if you have the 86 alum arms (with bumpstops), then use...

With the 944T rear rotor on a 944NA rear setup, you need a 3mm spacer and longer caliper bolts. With the Boxster S rotor, you...

Yeah the 091 trannys are popular with the offroad/dune buggy crowd. Depending on the model (3/5/6 rib) they're worth about $US300-500/pc in 'as-is' condition. You can get a Porsche-5 for that kind...

The hubs have to match the rotor. So, with the early hubs you can only do the early NA rotors. The 86T front rotor (28mm)will bolt to the early NA hubs, but because of the offset difference on the...

The disk width's do not match. The 944T rear caliper works with a 24mm wide disk, while the 944NA front rotor is 20.4mm wide. Your best bet is to use a Boxster front rotor (24mm) with the 944T rear...

I'd advise against mixing NA and T parts. Keep your whole car with the T calipers/rotors. Better brake pedal feel and you can keep your stock MC.
And, if your pockets are deep enough I can make...
