[urq] RE: UrQ Brake upgrade

[Thatcher Hubbard]

You wouldn't think it but I guess they used "heavy duty" brakes on the
back of the Avants where they did not on the sedans, hence two
different PNs for rotors.  I'm not sure if it has anything to do with
the difference between the rear struts on the wagons and the sedans,
but I came across this when doing research on a similar upgrade
myself.

I think ATE made a power disc to fit those cars, have you tried
www.zzmotors.com?
