Hmmm . . . do I detect a bit of sarcasm in your reply?
:) I understood what he's selling, thanks.
I guess the real questions are these: (1) clearly, this
is not the typical 'big brake kit', but has anyone ever
heard of or used this type of conversion for Audis?
(2) He's machined a bracket so that it fit his 1991
200tq20v, any idea if that same bracket would
work on my 1990 V8Q?
