vwdeviant 0 Posted August 11, 2006 Ok am thinking about changing the discs (f&R) to VR6 as the range of 5 stud wheels is much greater than 4x100 and I don't really want to run adaptors... Is this a relativly straight swop? Discs and bearings? Or a Weston (Super Mare)?? Has anyone come up with a disc setup pre-drilled to Porsche 5 stud? (like they have in the Air-cooled world..)

steve_16v 0 Posted August 11, 2006 G60 brakes are the same size as the VR6s and would be a much easier option, the VR6 has 5 stud wheels so you'd need to change the hubs and wheels. All corrado's have the same size rear brakes so there's no point changing them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dinkus 10 Posted August 12, 2006 As said, VR brakes are a pig to fit to anything other than a VR because they're 5x100 instead of 4x100. You can get some Brembos from some sort of Seat to fit, but I'm not sure what they are exactly - have a search though and you should find lots of info on it.

vwdeviant 0 Posted August 14, 2006 So wht should they be such a pain? Any-one know if any-one out there does stock style discs but with 5x100 stud pattern? I know some co. does stock but with Porsche stud pattern discs.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gradeAfailure 0 Posted August 14, 2006 The rear discs are a straight swap as it's just the discs that have the 5x100 pattern - however, on the front it's not just the discs that are 5x100 but the hubs as well; and if you change the hubs, then you have to change the driveshafts, and if you have to change the driveshafts, then...etc!
