Shad,

For the rear brakes, you could start with a 944 single piston setup with 282mm x 20mm rotors, all bolt on using 944 NA ebrake components. This will increase the rear width by 22mm per side.

From here, you could add an early Boxster monobloc 4 piston caliper with appropriate machining (radial mount, not axial mount like a 944 turbo rear). This caliper will work with a 282mm x 20mm rotor, and you have to machine an adapter to mount the caliper.

Next step would be a 944 turbo rear rotor (299mm x 24mm) with a matching 4 piston Brembo caliper. This will bolt on as well, but you will have to remove the adapter you built for the Boxster monobloc previously.

After the 22mm width increase per side, If you have to fit a spacer of 13mm more, You can fit a 930 rear rotor (309mm x 28mm) with a 944 turbo front caliper mounted on the rear, like I have done. I'm using this setup with 993 Biturbo fronts (322mm x 32mm) on a BJ front end with CB dropped spindles. I needed the 35mm to get the 18x10 wheel off of the springplate.

I'm not too sure of a front setup as I only have experience with the 993 Biturbo setup.

Hope you can use this info.
