944 hubs will not work. Different splines. Basic 924/944 rear suspension was stolen from the VW Beetle UNTIL the Turbo 944 came along. You can use the Boxster hub BUT you will have to change out the 914 bearing plate to a flat one. Then you can use late 944 stub axle and CVS. The next problem is Boxter rotor is vented and you will need some sort of spacing to make a spaced 914 caliper work or use a 911 rear with some sort of adaptation.
