[urq] V8 Brake swap for UrQ - bad info worse than no info.?

[Martin Pajak]

Steve,

That was the case with me and other guys up here.

On my old '85 Euro with 3B I had Sport calipers up front and V8/S4 setup in
the rear with stock MC and proportioning valve, all was good, pedal travel
was short and brakes worked wonderful.

On my old '83 I had G60 up front with vented rear but a vacuum booster with
stock MC, again excellent feel and short pedal travel.  I felt no need for
other/better Master Cylinder.

Mike H can comment on his setup which is identical to my old '85 with Sport
up front and V8/S4 in the back, again stock MC and hydraulic booster, all is
well.

Hope this helps.

 Most people just install the bigger rear 
calipers with the stock ur quattro master and call it good.  YMMV.
