    Im looking at doing the mk4 rear conversion some point this year and although you they fit straight on with out the need of calipers and using the original discs.

     

    Dont the mk4 rears use 232mm or 256mm discs? and can these be used on the rears as well as the calipers? Also what extra would be needed to make thee fit?

    Are they available with VR6 front with mk4 golf in rear mate??

     

    Thanks Johnny

     

    yes they are mate,

    price would be the same as for the standerd set up

     

    THOUGH IF ANY ONE ALREADY HAS FRONTS AND IS JUST DOING THE MK4 CONVERSION I CAN SUPPLY JUST THE REARS AT £30

     

    I will be interested in these just not yet. Planning on doing a proper refurb at the end of the summer. Do you think these will still be available then?

    what is the underside of the battery cover like - my concern is the risk of shorting the battery?

     

    it was just plain metal, but i got some rubber sheet and stuck it to the areas above the terminals.

    the cover sat a good hlaf cm plus above the terminals

    i had it made up for me by a local stainless steel fabricators, they made it from an off cut that would otherwise of being scrapped so it only cost me £15

     

    as for the bolts, i now have a very good and cheap supplier, so if you can provide me with length, thread and size then i can supply nearly all the bolts in stainless steel or bright zinc plate

    furbers at prees

     

    that will be a car for sale, either cat c or d.

    Agreed. If it was at their site in Whixall, it'd be Cat A or B

    not striclty true,

    cat a cars can not be used for parts in any way, normaly down to either a fire and the chemicals given off by the burning process or a fatality in the car

     

    CAT A crush only

    CAT B parts only can not return to the road

    CAT C AND D unecomical for insurer to repair but can be sold on to be privatly repaired.

     

    ive always prefered the cars from furbers at childs ercall, but then againmy uncle grew up with the owners from there so we get a good discount.

     

    havent being for years though, wonder if the steel wide arched renault five shell is still there?

    had being altered to take ford 4 x 4 turbo running gear

    hmm sure i had some pictures in that post above.

     

    it all started out a few years ago when i was after some braided lines for my peugeot, i was put in touch with these guys, a group buy for the 306gti6 forum followed, then one on the saxo forum and 106 forum and things have kind of snowballed from there.

     

    now i have posts on a few forums and on ebay (9657adriana is the user name, though i am trying to do one just for my car parts and that is kaarparts1)

    generaly selling a few sets of lines a week of variuos sorts, where i differ from the likes of goodridge is that as the lines are made to order they can be tailored to suit each person.

     

    the company who make them for me dont have a website, they trade by there reputation on the motorsport circuits, where they supply everything from this type of brake line to full on braided kits made to order and even fueling items including FIA spec sampling rigs
