The fact is that here are ALLOT of performance parts for VW Golf and none for the vw Beetle
for instance, a set of new 2 front disk brakes, cross-drilled and ventilated with 4 pot calipers and everything (the brand is OMP!)for vw golf is from $180-$400(vr6 big brakes)
This brakes are bolt on to the golf.I must find a combination to use this brakes on a beetle.
I would pay at least that much to buy new stock brakes for my 1302....
With suspension, there is the same, huge variety of parts for vw golf....and cheap also....
