jack 0 Posted July 17, 2009 Can anyone tell me if the 312mm Brakes of a golf MK5 will do for the brake conversion. Most seem to use MK4 or Audi TT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikkijayne 0 Posted July 18, 2009 No, because the mk5 is 5x112 whereas the mk4 and TT are 5x100 :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted July 18, 2009 Well... the discs actually come multi-fitment - 5x112 and 5x100 as they were Audi and VW... That said I think the MKV uses a different offset so I assume the discs are different and probably the carriers are too... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikkijayne 0 Posted July 18, 2009 Ooo really? I wondered what the extra set of holes were for when I pulled one to bits last week, but I wasn't really paying that much attention to the disks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toad 0 Posted July 18, 2009 How's the V8 conversion going??? :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikkijayne 0 Posted July 18, 2009 Slowly, but very well 8) I'm doing a lot of fabricating at the moment, and getting stuff machined. It's kind of design and fab as I go along, so it takes a while as I only get the weekends to work on it. A lot of CAD too - Cardboard Aided Design :D A couple of months and hopefully I will have all the drivetrain sorted and bolted in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted July 18, 2009 Is that V8 going in a Corrado? If so that should be awesome! :nuts: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted July 20, 2009 That V8 is already in a Corrado :wink: Wow! Gotta love your stealth modesty mate :D . There would be plenty of people bigging themselves up around the 'scene' if they were doing this conversion! Worth it just for the sound alone :notworthy: Looking forward to seeing the end product!
