How soon can you get them made up for ?
It'd be nice to have them to play with on easter week end ?
Direct bank account transfer OK ?

The complete shopping list for this conversion is:
- These brackets!
- E32 750/740 or E34 540 front calipers. There are two sizes, you need the ones with '60/28/32' stamped on it.
- Pads for any of the above cars.
- Audi TT 312mm front discs, with holes drilled to fit the E30 4-stud hubs and 1mm machined out of the centre bore.
- Brake fluid to bleed the brakes after swapping calipers
- Wheels big enough to fit over these brakes! Most 17" wheels seem to be ok and some but certainly not all 16" wheels.
- Not essential but a bigger bore master cylinder is a good idea, popular choice is the E32 750/740 cylinder.
It's quite a crude and rather heavy set up but cheap and effective!

they look a bit rough,also the design is wrong and the caliper will be off centre to the disk,therefore wont fit.

i would be interested in some of these, would agree that stainless steel would be better than alloy, is there not a disc that would fit?, maybe obtain a brake disc manufactures catalouge for dimensions ie ferodo?....
good luck with them.
good luck with them.
