944 Brakes @ All 4 Corners of a Standard Type 1

Hello GL,

I have been reading over this site for a few days now. I can find a lot of info for Super's (1302 & 1303) about the 944 Brake upgrade's, but none on the Standard Type 1's. I am mostly interested in the '69-'7x Standard's with IRS rear and ball joint front.

I am currently running stock drums and suspension at all 4 corners. I want to do the "all bolt-on" installation if at all possible.

With that said, the rear is going to be swapped with an 83-85 944NA Spring Plate, trailing arm, swaybar, and brake hubs and 1-pot calipers. Just bolt and go, is this correct?
Or to get the 4-pot calipers, use the '86-'91 (minus '87 for one off parts) 944T with the same year suspension? This would require machining to fit, no?

For the front suspension, I am thinking of going with the Red9Design EzRider.
So for brakes, will the '83-'85 944NA and '86-'91 944T just bolt on since this is not a super and doesn't require the bump-steer kit and 17mm ball joint?

And one more question. The stock master cylinder should suffice, no? Or would a Kerscher or 944 unit be a better choice?

Thanks in advance,
Ryan
