      (i really try to develop everything to match an aveo owners budget)

      it will retain ebrake capabilities, be a bolt on kit, and not change the bolt pattern or anything. It will space out your rear wheel an undetermined amount. (i haven't measured but only like 12-15mm per side, which is perfectly doable).
      Awesome! I didn't even know you're developing that. When would that be available? And what other parts would I need to buy used? Could you post a list of stuff we need so we can start looking?

      all the stuff that was on the bake of your corrado would be a good place to start

      The corrado has been gone for over 4 years now... . You mean the brake disk and calipers? I know its been a while... was corrado also a 4x100 bolt pattern? If I remember correctly, MKIII jettas are...

      All that stuff is down the road for me for right now... I hope that my R1 cross drilled & slotted premium rotors and Posi Quiet ceramic pads will make enough difference when they arrive. . I am loking forward to your disk brake conversion kit though...

      4 cylinder vw's are 4x100. the rear brakes bolt pattern is only determined by which rotors you buy, So if you buy a vr6 rear disc setup cheaper, you would just need 16v/g60 rear rotors to convert it to 4x100 to use.. i always recommend new rotors and pads along with the bearings.

      Re: looking for rear hub bearing

      Is there a way to go with bigger rotors in the front too? Can I just get that off of another car? Having no ABS should make it easier...
