I would just remove the engine, transmission, torque tube, and suspension (front and rear) from the 968, and roll it under the 944 shell. Worry about the ECU and everything else later.

You got time, just save up some money for pads and rotors. Theyre definately better than what you have.

You can probably adapt the brakes to the 944 brake lines easily. Just leave the ABS sensors where they are, and fit the abs to your car later on if you want... or never install it.

Is it true 968s all come with M030 suspension and brakes? I would definately keep those...
