ServusMarc!
This SuperB is my friend's Petros car.My car is Passi 18T.
We are looking together to upgrade our brakes to W8 4 pot

The ideea is to maschine whatever parts in order to fit the brakes on the original 18T axles,wishbones and drive shafts!

Anybody can provide the following data:
1. offset of W8 disks
2.thickness of carrier at the pin
3.distance between inner sides of the carrier

than we will be able to fabricate adaptors kits and eventually make them available to the Passat comunity(at cost price off course)

Please help!

I think the guys of http://www.r-a-r.de must know what do you need for change to W8 brakes, they put an 2.7T (Audi) into a Passat
