Why not 944 turbo calipers?

Remember that there were two different calipers on the 944 Turbos. The Turbo S had the larger 928 calipers. I believe these are the same as on the early 90's 911's. I bought these for my 914 and think they should do just fine. One thing to consider is that they don't just bolt up to an earlier strut as the spacing is different. It looks like I will have to fill one of the holes on the caliper and redrill them to get the proper spacing. Either that or modify the strut.
