OT what cars share brake parts with the G60?
Im trying to find a set of brake callipers and carriers for a Corrado G60.....hunting around the scrappies G60 stuff is like rocking horse doodoo
I am 99% sure that the corrado G60 and Polo G60 share the same front brake callipers and carriers on 180mm disks...
However, what other VW group cars share these callipers? Im sure they will have used them on more cars

I seem to remember my mate telling me that his Golf VR6 has the same brakes as the G60. VW dealer should be able to give you part numbers.

Polo G40 are the same as Mk1 gold gti, so won't be those....
IMHO Best bet would to be looking at audi 80s - VAG have a habit of pulling std brakes down the model line for 'sports' brakes on the
smaller stuff. The stud positions/spacing stay pretty std afaik, so Audi 100 brakes fit on the mk1 golf as long as you can get the wheels on!
Thinking further - Corrado is Golf Mk2 based, so 16v golf mk2 may be worth checking... HTH

The calipers are the same as the MK2 16v Golf and most of the fun mk3's, but the carriers are different to get them around the bigger discs
(256mm on the mk2 16v, 280 on the G60). there is an Audi with the carriers I think, but buggered if I can remember which one.
Have a search through the forum on Club GTI, there'll be hundreds of posts about them.
