I used some dual piston calipers from the Audi, and the fit under my 15's with like a quarter inch clearance. These are more braking power than is needed. The pads are much larger than the stock pads, and if you really step into the pedal they will lock the tires up at any speed!
Owner reviews for brake caliper
i have vr6 with g60 rotors mk3 calipers, that i had to grind to fit inside my ra's, and it works GREAT.
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.
They are a direct fit IF you got the caliper carriers too. You will only have to trim the dust shield a little bit that's all.
These calipers came off an audi 5000 turbo and each caliper has 2 pistons (dual piston) this means you will get a great amount of breaking force with each pump. These are a GREAT UPGRADE for your track car or daily car without having to spend so much money to get aftermarket brakes.
I run TT rotors with Boxster calipers. I like this setup very much. Brake pedal is a little firmer than stock and they are easy to modulate on the street.
Alright guys Ive got the 11" front brakes with the girling 60's calipers and you will need the whoke brake assembly froma corrado(to make everything easy) and if you have Sebrings or RA's it wont fit over the caliper.
I have the Seat Ibiza Cupra R 4 pot Brembos for a 4 lug 12" rotors I'm running Brock B2's 16x7.5" with a 15mm FK spacer.
The dual piston calipers seem like a great upgrade, and in theory they are, but the actual difference in stopping power between them and the corrado single piston calipers isnt noticeable. The extra unsprung weight of the dual piston caliper is also a drawback.
are these the girly-girling calipers? the ones with a brake pad the size of a saltine cracker? also known as cracker-pads? if so, throw them in the garbage and set the garbage can on fire.
