| You do know that the performance is negligible right? Trucks had the best/biggest drum brakes available for the A1 chassis and a disc conversion would actually be a step down. I agree they look prettier. No park brake cable available though (too long a distance). Scirocco 16V parts are what people use but you may need to come up with cables on your own. |

| if you really want to do the disc swap you can get the parts off any mk1, 2 or 3 (aside from vr)... all the spindles, discs, carriers are all the same size for every car with discs in every year. you'll also need proportioning valves |

| I have a B3 passat 16V that I was thinking to pull the brake parts off of. does anyone know if that will work? that would include all related parts in the rear, such as the stub axles. |
