How much money have you set for this project? Are you aware that the entire 911 suspension is completely swappable with the 914? I was faced with the same challenges. I found that buying the complete 911 suspension with brakes was the most economical route. I started calling dismantlers as they have a variety of 911 runners/rollers coming in all the time. Some have been rear-ended but excellent condition front suspensions. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Of these suspensions, many have already received upgrades as mine did. Turbo tie-rod ends.... Replacement rotors are cheap on Ebay. And it's not brain surgery to swap 'em.
