Start here at Bill's site and see if you can find what you need. It will at least get you started until someone else chips in.

The 964 front is the same as the 944t front except oem the former is setup for leading mount and the latter is set up for trailing mount, swap the bleeds and feeds and they are interchangeable.

Same for the 964 r and 944t r.

It's a lot of work to mount either one right. For starters at least, in the front the axial mount ears are machined off to convert them to radial mount, it goes on from there.

Best to forget it unless you are a real maschochist

If yo have to do something then

'78-89 930 rotors, w/ either 930 or 993 calipers are a far better choice
