Brakes



Which Wilwood's would you recommend?  Do they require adapters? Or will
they fit the stock bolt pattern?

When I was shopping for brakes, I researched using a corrado setup and
then
the Audis.  Both require 11 inch rotors and specific offset wheels to
work.


But, to me the main problem with those setups is the weight.  An Audi
dual
piston caliper by itself, no adapter or lines weighs over 7 lbs.
Cheapest I
could find a set of those boat anchors locally was $100 used not
including
pads and lines or rotors.

Wilwoods on the other hand weigh in at under 3lbs with pads and lines
and
also work with the stock 16v rotors and you get the benefit of more
pistons.

If your lucky you can find a set for under $200 used.
