Girling › Brake caliper

I'm not going to get in to what bolts on directly since I love the g60 set up on a mk2. But i will say that anytime you upgrade one part of your brake system some other part will suffer.

Body bounce:
Bottoming:

Koni... they transformed my Mk4 Golf into something that rode and handled better when compared to stock... The ride was stiffer, but the quality was actually better, especially on the highway. A lot of people noticed and commented on how good the car felt.

Pros: rode and handled better

Cons: ride was stiffer

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

ATE › Brake caliper

Uneven wear:

ok so those are the front calipers on my mk1 golf.. (83 golf GL... german market) they are ATE brand and are stamped VWII looking at the rotors and pads it seems something funky is going on. the contact area on the rotor seems tiny.. and the pads hang off of it (the contact area) really far. so basically there is a tiny clean part in the center and the edges are all super rough and rusty.

Cons: contact area seems tiny

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

ATE › Brake fluid

Pedal feel:

I have been running Super Blue in mine since last fall. Just recently I have developed a squeaky clutch pedal. I thought is was just because the car was getting older.

Cons: developed a squeaky clutch pedal
