Option 4:

-Requires 1st Gen Audi TT carriers & washers

This is not correct. You can use the TT, 337 or GLi carriers

yeah i think he right, all of these cars had the 12.3 brakes....and i think the washers are more like a thick spacer, same one for the r32 setup....either way ecs sells them.

w/o a doubt. I have a set of 337's mounted up to my VR spindles, hubs etc.

Maybe I am re-stating the obvious, but you can't upgrade your master cyl if you still have ABS (based on your picture). The u/g is for people who converted to non-ABS.

Now, that MC "may" be from a car that has ABS, but keep in mind that the Corrado used the Teves I/II (which you have II with EDL) and that setup was an electric pump based system. Never used a Vacuum booster or traditional MC like non-ABS cars or later ABS passats and other VWs do which just used an external modulator to control pressure to each channel.

It should be noted that the Porsche calipers weigh 2.75 lb less than my 11.3” DE calipers and carriers. I bet the 12.3 carriers weigh more.

There is a thread somewhere where I posted the weight of the 12.3" setup. It is very surprising.... A Lot

For the VR6 people doing Audi TT 312 rotors and either VW calipers or Boxster you’ll need 1/4” spacers, ECS sells them for $60

I bought 4 stainless washers for $14 shipped from this site: https://www.extsw.com/collections/1...id-x-25-1-mm-od-x-6-35-mm-thick-316-ss-washer


In my rear r32 calipers/carriers I needed 1/4 spacers because r32 and GLI rear carriers have different offsets so used these: https://www.extsw.com/collections/10mm-id-316/products/10mm-id-x-22mm-od-x-6-35mm-thick-316-ss

I did something similar, but just used a single thicker regular SS washer. I think the exact measurement needed is 5mm (based on Rotor offsets), but there is leeway (both ways) as you know.

Cool site though! I would have used the crap out of them before I got my lathe
