will g60 steering knuckles bolt up to my rocco1???



Alright, alright, had a brain cramp.  Still, who REALLY needs 11" brakes?
You don't really need that much of an excuse to go to 15" wheels do you?
The Corrado is much heavier a car so it needed (?) bigger brakes, especially
to slow it down from those INSANE speeds that the stock G60 would get it to.
I think VW just realized that idiot kids would buy these things and try to
smash into everyone so they put larger brakes on it thinking it would even
things out.  Overkill, I think, unless your going to race it on a track (and
not drag racing).  My 2 cents!
