i haven't used it:

a) because i still needed to source the calipers and disks although it comes to under £150 for the lot from gsf!

b) because i'm lazy lol

Hi m8, what else will be needed for the conversion just the discs and calipers ? Do i need hub adapters to keep it as a 4 stud ? Also can i still attach my 6N coilovers to them ? thanks

Good question about 6n coilies!!

it wouldn't affect your coilovers as if you're converting this on a 6N you only need the stub axel outwards which is no relation to where the strut mounts. 6N2 gti's are 4 stud aswell so no worrys there. The only other thing you *may* need is different handbrake cables. I'm sure theres a guide somewhere on here of how to do the conversion i'll see if i can dig out!

Theres a good guide on Uk Polos

How much do you reckon it would cost to get one of these all fitted? just a rough estimate.

ermm no idea but its no different to changing the rear brake set up tbh. really isn't that hard, stub axels come off with 4 bolts. then its a case of changing the brake cylinders for the calipers, mounting everything up and bleeding the system!

shipping it would cost a fair old bit of money probly looking at £30+ i collected it from nottingham when i bought it and it fitted in the back of my car with the seats down no problem! but if you really want it courired i could get you a definate price.
