Re: A3 Rear Calipers on a Roc

[Andy Holmes <sciroccoinj@yahoo.co.uk>]

Yes - I have A3 rear calipers on my 91 Scirocco
Whats involved - Scirocco 16v handbrake cables for a
start (Easy to source in the UK - er No). To get them
to fit i had to cut about 1.5cm from the little
tunnels where they go into the body.
Brake lines - 16v Goodridge kit saved my bacon there.
I just had to get a bracket fabricated to carry the
brake line. Took about 2 hours to do a complete swap
from drums to discs with A3 calipers.
