Mate,
You have a write up for your rear brake conversion... how about your fronts? I see you say you are using Audi disks and VL calipers, what is involved in fitting those? Also, any idea what price you can pick up those parts for?

Thanks

Would be sweet if you could give me some details of the bloke who does this.

Thanks again

Also, how much would it cost to do your rear brake conversion, how much can you pick up some VL disks and calipers for? Any idea?
