Very nice setup. I am envious that yours is built and mine isn't.

I have a few questions for you that will help me get mine done:

1. How did you go about getting VDubCustons to make those caliper brackets?
2. I have access to alot of CAD programs, which format do they use when drawings are required?
3. How much did they cost to have made?

Just send them an e-mail. I had them make my front brake kit for my beetle. It's the 944-S kit featured on their website. Check out thier website and contact them from their. www.vdubcustoms.com

Sandeep,

took a look at mine the other day and i see how the nut on the spindle is held on by very few threads. is yours the same?

could you take a pic of the "face" of the rotor? or this spindle nut? i'm a little worried of it coming off.

later,
pete

Give Lanner a call @ vdubcustoms. He'll set you up and advise as to what he needs.

Pete,

I've already greased the bearings and installed the dust cap and the setup is mounted on the bug so can't take pics of the spindle nut. Check the brake galleries and you'll see a pic of my first setup (944T). The hub assembly is the same and I used an aftermarket spindle nut and got all threads on except maybe one ? I found my original spindle nuts and they measure about 4mm thinner than the aftermarket ones, so I used those instead and I get all threads on the spindle nut to engage.

Hope that helps.
