well, my stock front suspension needs to be rebuilt. so i figure what the heck why not. my plan is to accumulate parts in advance. i talked to german auto dismantlers (i think that was them) and asked for a price on an early 911 front suspension. i was quoted 200 for a "rough one". i need to buy Torsion bars and shocks as it is, so why not put that money into a "rough" 911 front. i figure i dont need used struts and stuff, just the brakes and rotors....ill replace t bars, and shox

what i need to know is:
*someone said early 911 struts are interchangeable with 914's? is this so?
if so: ill put new struts in my car now, and carry them over to the 911 front at the time of install/switch
* how much are my 2.o liter fuchs alloys worth? original, no curb rash on most. have 5 of them
*911 fuchs go for about 100-125 apiece
*what size wheels should i look for, on my stock fendered 914. 15x6? 16x6?
*how hard is it to restud stub axles? cost?
*this front setup will give me 911 M calipers w/ vented discs right?
* i need to use 914-6 rear dics right?

the only downside to this conversion other than cost is, my rotors and brakes are all redone as of last year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
