Kinda confused, you don't move the rotor. Which I believe is what you're saying. The idea is to move the caliper in, not the rotor out.

Also, from drums to 944NA hubs is about 1" differance.

I know Lanner makes a kit to format the porsche e brake to vw but I was wondering if anyone had an install article or it so i can get a better Idea on the whole process .. i've searched googled for porsche brake set up diagrams and all I came up with was a " how to change your brakes " by pelican tech articles..

also what do u mean by " widen the track"

I havn't installed my ebrakes yet. From what I saw ebrake shoes are expensive, so they'll wait till later.

When you widen the track, you move the wheel out away from the vehical.
