so where can i get a disc brake kit. i mean one that truly bolts on. front and rear. i have thought about piecing one together, but cant find a good machine shop in my area that deals with european cars. so i cant trust one to do te right job. i want vented disc at all four corners. i have a 72 std beetle. will be putting jakes new 2058t engine. need something strong to stop it. i want a cmplete kit, looking to spend about 2500 on a complete set for all four corners. can this be done? if so by whom?

i know it can be done cheaper by doing myself, but i dont trust myself with the brake system. dont want to kill myself or someone else by a simple mistake. plus i have no machine shop i can trust.

please help!!!

also, has any thought of making a kit from 944 parts and selling it?

thanks neil

CB Performance is one vendor.....not sure if they have the bolt pattern though. The other vendor is Kerscher in Germany.
