hey lads, just wondered wot calipers and discs i could use on the back of my mk1b? iv heard that sw20 calipers fit (not sure if they meant the turbo or n/a) which allow me to use a vented disc on the rear but i wonder if the levin 20v rear calipers will fit? i have a set of vented discs to fit on the rear, if my memory serves me correct the rear mk1b discs are approx 5-6mm smaller diameter than the fronts?? i am open to correction

Turbo and NA (22v calipers) are the same, have a read of Pauls big brakes pdf in the download section.

Futher to this I believe you can use unmodified carriers with smaller discs, anyone confirm this?

You can use the 22v calipers with unmodified brackets and use AW11 front rotors with a ~6mm spacer between the hub and rotor.
