    MK4 Jetta Brembo retrofit?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I might be able to get my hands on some Brembo calipers off of a MK4 Jetta GLI. It doesnt have pads or rotors but I am willing to pick some up. My main questions is just if it will be able to work or not?
    I did some slight research yesterday and found out that the MK4 Jetta has the exact same TT carrier (A8 upgrade) as we do. This gives me the impression that the bolt pattern is the same from our car to the MK4.
    I spoke with a friend and he said that the hardest part might be just finding the rotors, what do yall think?
    Also, they would include brake lines, would those fit on my car too?

    Any insight would be great!
    TIA

    Yes they do, so Chris will need different rotors.

    Well I won't have the rotors to begin with. Anyone know which ones will fit and where to get them? So does anyone think they will fit?

    I believe the rotors on the kit should be 323x28.

    you might try asking Adams Rotors for some advice, since they seem to have a pretty good handle on the specs for the vw/audi rotor scene

    brembo publishes the specs of all their rotors on their website, at least they used to. just cross reference the specs of the rotors you want to use with the available rotors out there. thats how ive done several bbks in the past.
