The brackets I ordered from usrt bolt up to the boxster red rears.... As to whether rear boxster calipers work or not I've done and uses the calculator several times and it is a 15% increase in brake power..
Ok, so i got them fitted yesterday. I used the following: - caliper carripers from Epytec for the cayenne zr18 caliper for mk4 : http://www.epytec.de/modelle/vw/gol...achse/1293/adapter-porsche-bremssattel-audi-tt-a3-vw-golf-4-polo-9n-bora?c=1250 - braided brake hoses from Epytec for porsche calipers: http://www.epytec.de/kategorien/bre...ng-vw-golf-4-r32-audi-a3-s3-a1-porsche-brembo-ttrs-polo-9n-bremsen-umbau?c=1730 - regular ATE brake pads - EBC R32 Brake discs - Porsche Cayenne ZR18 calipers I ended up having to put my 20mm spacers from the back wheels to the front, because the 10mm ones didn't clear the caliper. The epytec hardware is really good quality stuff, comes with all necesary german TUV paperwork to be able get the brakes \"registered\". I drove a total of 10 miles, and as a first impression, the pedal is kind of spongy and goes down pretty low. I will definitely look into upgrading to a 25.4mm M/C. I will let you guys know more after the brakes get seated in properly and do a really good brake bleeding to a better brake fluid.
Girling 60 on the Mk III 4x100 is the best bolt on bang for the buck. Make sure you get the girling 60 brackets/carriers too.
I did the Brembo 18Z(Touareg/Cayenne/Q7 calipers) on mine. It wound up being relatively cheap, less than $1000, but I used normal powerslot slotted rotors not 2 piece fancy rotors. They were relatively cheap and look awesome. Wheel clearance is a MAJOR issue, finding wheels to clear with anywhere near stock offset is very hard. They do NOT have bias issues that some people complain about when putting them on other MKV and MKVI cars, I would say my car brakes in a very balanced way.
Personally I would not delete the proportioning valve. I run 304x25mm front with AP Racing calipers and stock MKIII rear disks with MKIV calipers. The stock MKIII proportioning valve can be adjusted to the point there is too much rear bias.
Rear calipers are a Porsche 944T, the disks in a VW Corrado / Golf G60, 280mm, 274mm lowered to the clamps are anchored with an adapter for Grinling54, is to lower a bit with the grinder, but it is simple
Lo, and behold, the Golf R front brake calipers and the MkV .:R32 calipers are made by ATE and nearly identical to the ATE calipers on the Volvo V50.
those look old i have an 83 and mine look different
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.
Rear Lucas calipers always worked ok-ish after each "fix". But that was never a long term solution. Worked fine for a month, sometimes a year or two. Just a never ending dragging story, uneven pads wear, pads cut at an angle, heat induced accelerated rust of disc and back plate.
