unless you have some really fancy 13's they wont go under them.

what about the servo and master cylinder? keep the G40 one or upgrade?

id go with a golf mk2 16v master.

again should be fairly easy to get hold of i would of thought, have really been contenplating this for a while, however every time i tweak the rear drums up and adjust the hand brake i think the brakes are amazing again (well as amazing as they will ever get).

i have 4 pot 300mm hi specs on the front and golf gti mk4 rear calipers/disks on the back and they are still not amazing :D

Hahahaha, I reckon you just drive to fast :-) only issue I have is that my mate has my 14's and I have his 13's, after a short conversation I don't think he wants to swap back lol.

you'll be surprised what a difference good disks and pads make! so you can stick with your 239's.

Oh yes dont get me wrong i have good dics and pads, braided hoses dot 5:1 fluid and all new rear drums/shoes etc spent a lot on it all but a great improvement i think, just need to tweak the handbrake again as i have done 500 since all the new stuff but still i think they work well.
