Hi gang,
I have two '91 200tq20v's and need to do front brakes.  the UFO's have finally 
had it, and I need a conversion that won't break the bank.  I don't race, 
they're just daily drivers.  What is a nice conversion that doesn't cost $$$?  
I'm sure I may get a flurry of answers, but that's ok.  I have no problem 
converting to a style of brake that's available on other cars - i.e. using used 
parts to do the conversion and being able to get new rotors and pads....  I read 
an article online about someone having to turn down the hub on a lathe (which I 
can do, i have a lathe) so a particular rotor would fit, and some caliper had 2 
of the 3 bolt holes line up, that sounds like it could work, but i'll be darned 
I can't find that article anywhere.  


What do you all think?
