...welded to the strut tower...sorry, no photos...so that we could have the 944 turbo Brembo brakes...TÜV says no...no such welding can be approved that can lead to death if failure occurs, quasi.

So I want great brakes on this car up front and need to get parts and work done fast. Buyer is waiting and I need money bad, thanks to COVID destroying my tour business, Mike‘s Bike Tours of Munich and Bus Bavaria Neuschwanstein Castle Tours.

Would greatly appreciate a few of the more knowledgeable here taking a. Omens to recommend a quick way to go here...either 914 struts and possible 911 brake upgrade....if at all possible, or which (entire) 911 suspensions FIT or if I can combine 911 strut towers with the 914 suspension...??

Thanks gentlemen!

With best regards,

Mike in Munich

944 Turbo calipers are 3.75" center to center while your strut ears are only 3.50". If you want to take 1/16" off the inside, you can do it and it will work but I can see how officially it can't be sanctioned by automotive engineers. I know others in the group who have done this...besides me.
