UFO brake conversion

[PeterBergin at aol.com]

I have had G-60 on both old Audi's.  They work fine as a daily  driver.  My 
friend had UFO's on his, there is better stopping power.   His used to warp 
all the time.  A couple of high sped hard stops always  straightned them 
out.
 
Unless you can find a cheep front suspension (mine is out of a V8 (done by  
Audi) before I bought the car, I would fix what you got.
 
My 2 cents.

In  regards to the comments of the G60 brakes fading by others...
Late April I  had my 200 20V @ HPR (High Plains Raceway) in Colorado for 
the day shod with  Race Slicks, G60 Conversion up front, Stainless Steel Brake 
lines, Prospeed  RS683 Brake Fluid, Chipped ECM & many of the sessions with 
3-4 people in  the (Clown Car as spectators referred to it as) car & all 
sessions run  hard as possible...
All without experience of any Brake Fade  whatsoever...

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?
