I think www.vdubcustoms.com has a kit with N/A brakes. I'm sure Lanner would be happy to adapt some turbo calipers to his kit for you.

PM or email Pillow. he is only on here occasionally. he did a 944NA conversion on his split and is pretty well versed in the options.

Porsche brakes on a T2

I looked into doing this when I had a Bay window Westy.
To fit up front is not bad, you need to space the bearings 10mm further apart (at a 5mm spacer behind the inner and outer bearings) and then the hub will fit onto your T2 spindle. They use the same bearings.
Then you need to make up a pair of caliper adaptors and off you go!... well its never quite that easy

At the back, its a lot more difficult. There is nothing in common with Porsche stuff. I was going to look at drilling the hub for Porsche studs, slipping the Porsche disk over the top and then make up a plate which bolts to the rear arm and accepts the Porsche backing plate... but I never got that far so don't know if any of that will work.

Good luck.
