Best brake upgrade possible???!!!
I was considering MK3 GTI callipers and necessary adaptors etc with braided hoses and some nice, fast road pads. As I don't think i'll ever bother with rear disc conversion I want the sharpest most effective set up on front.
Suggestion pleeeeease.
In Dorset, a "technical" usually involves bailer twine and a lump hammer…….

Bearing that in mind you'll want 16v master cylinder and mk2 servo with braided hoses. bout as good as you'll get

No idea how effective they are…I would have thought more people would do it was worth it. Bear in mind it would need a master cylinder direct off the pedal (ie proper pedal box). Plus it needs vac feed from intake still…
