The early 944 brakes are a known straight forward swap onto a Beetle. They are the single piston caliper which is easy to rebuild and parts are cheap. On the down side the front rotors are mounted inside the hub and all has to come off to change them.

The later 944 brakes were again single pot calipers. But the front rotors sat outside the hub and can be changed easily. Parts are more expensive for some of the stuff, but some are carry-over parts from the earlier 944.

Special sport models and the Turbo are totally different animals. Parts are expensive, but you get the big calipers. Also I do not think the 15" wheels can be used..?

In my opinion it is better to go with the early 944 parts just because the rotors are cheaper as they interchange with the 911 units. Granted the method of mounting is a big factor here as well. 944 bearings or Beetle bearings? What machining do you want to do? Blah blah blah.

Good Luck,
