Hi all,
Got a Mk4 1.6 6n, looks a bit worse for wear but slowly getting it back to decent spec and looks.
Already got stainless steel exhaust(downpipe-back), lowering springs 40mm, shocks, front suspension bushes and air filter.
Putting a strut brace on it next week, then the next thing is G60 brake conversion when funds allow. As you all know the list is endless. If anyone knows where to some cheap G60 brakes (full set/new) let me know, using eurocarparts at the moment! [img]

Welcom fella.
Big Brakes
i know this sounds long winded but with the word G60 on the parts the prices fly high the best way to do is the same as mine.
you of corse need the mk2 G60 280mm disc so you have four stud discs then get your self some MK3 Golf VR6 caliper carriers and MK5 polo Gti calipers as these fit onto standard mk4 polo brakes hoses. the standard Polo calipers are too small to fit the carriers and also have small pistons.
you will also need at least 15" wheels as this setup due to disc size wont take smaller.
