944s arms, 968 rotors, 968 calipers

[badassdubs]

I have 87 944s alum arms. Found some 95 968 calipers. Will these bolt on, if so do I use 968 rotors? I've looked and searched and from what I've found
I'm pretty sure they will, but I want to be 100% sure before I buy. Thanks.

Check this link to Lanner's site or just give them a call. I am sure he can help.

Thanks. I have looked at the site already, but no definitive answer. I called him, but no answer.

Use the 87-88 944 rear turbo disk or 92-95 968 rear disk (they are the same part) and the 968 calipers will bolt up fine.

The rear calipers from 86-91 944 Turbo and 968 are the same, so both will work. Porsche robbed alot of existing parts bins when they made the 968.

FYI: 993 rear calipers are dimensionally the same as well except the Porsche script is not raised on the caliper face, rather smooth with a sticker.

Thanks Lanner. Good talking to you today. Ordered the parts today.
Now my build can continue. I'll be ordering some parts from you also.

All parts are now installed and it looks like I will have to run the 3mm spacers to center the caliper. Mock up is finished. Time to pull it apart, blast and powder coat.
