Porsche 944 turbo brakes on BJ beetle

This must been talked many times, but i havent find any good answers yet. How to install 944 T brakes to a stock height BJ spindles? Especially the bracket i am interested.

I am designing this setup for a friend, and i suggested that new hubs are made and rotor will be porsche rotor 282x20,5 or 282x24. I have started to design the hub.

Does the spindle need machining? Is it possible to make lasercut bracket? I plan to make it out of finnish high strenght steel, which yield strength is 650nm/mm2

I have 944 turbo rear calipers, that friend wants to buy them, is it wise to put these to front? If stock calipers have 40mm pistons, these turbo rear calipers have about 10% caliper area and the pads are 1,5x bigger.
