    yh just been reading up on 312mm and im gonna use some 288 and re drill them at work. as i want some banded g60 steels. i cant wait to get your engine in there lol when my pedal box arrives ill do a mock fit with the mk2 master cylinder. im gonna pick a subframe up from my local breakers and try and pinch the mounts too and the resi tank.
  11. ashmk3
    right got quite a small amount done today. subframe and wishbones are off and cleaned up and painted the bay was given another once over and started to paint it black again but ran out of paint now its dark i decided to wrap my steering wheel i have a pedal box which is a passat item, and corrado vr6 clutch master cylinder. what brake master cylinder has everyone used ? im thinking i will go big on brakes and get some 312mm and get the holes welded at work then re drill them 4x100.has anyone fitted 312mm behind g60 steels?

    We managed to get through it but it was holding in by a couple of roots so I decided to pull it. (good idea at the time) then I felt a crack in my back. Damn owning your own house if everything weren't so expensive I would have got someone in lol.

    yh im just trying to find my username and password as someone else has recently asked and he normally does them in batches. however if you could either make a drawing of the one you have i could make one at work for nothing
  21. ashmk3
