Re: UrQ front callipers on the rear?

Michael,

I guess you haven't been to my site in a while.
I did it on my Ur-q.
You still have to reweld new caliper carrier brackets on the strut or simply
weld a steering arm onto a 5kt strut along with a 4k/Coupe spring seat (more
work).
At the same time you can upgrade to vented rotors.
