Some how I lost one of the bolts that hold on the driver side front caliper. A local yard has a 944 na. Are these parts the same for the turbo and the non turbo? Thanks

Quick check in the diagrams reveals, if I am looking at the right page, a M12x1.5x35 bolt holds the caliper on. If this sound about right head down to your local fastner retailer and buy it, make sure you get grade 8.

Actually, make sure you get grade 8.8 bolts. M12x1.5x40, not 35. Torque spec. is 63 ft-lbs.

To answer your original question, yes, the caliper bolts are the same on all models of 944 and 951. Some may be allen head, but most are hex head; shouldn't matter if you mix them.
