Doing a bigbrake swap/wheels/coilovers as well as other mods...
 
Here is a link to my video getting started on my "winter build" on the Z if anyone is interesting in following the process.

Lol, I've been following on the Tube for awhile now :) Love what you have done to your Polo green Beast, I'm taking notes for when I do the same to mine...

Ya definitely not keeping it stock lol. Thanks for watching, that's the purpose of my videos is to help others get through their own builds, God knows I've used a thousand videos to get through some of mine. #Givingback

I'm contemplating of doing some stuff, such as headers, brakes, and exhaust......And watching your header install was very informative thanks! Did you replace the wheels as well, did you go with A-molds?

I did replace the wheels.... watch the video and I give you a peek at them😁 The new wheels are 19s and they barely clear those new calipers

Do you go into detail as to how the new calipers fit? And how you mounted them?

I don't, primarily because I'm still in the r&d phase. I only have the fronts completed at this time, still fabing the rears.

Nice project and nice video.
I will follow this as well. Nice to see how the F body brakes fit.
Thanks for posting.

Thanks! The fronts weren't bad surprisingly....the rears look more challenging

Did the fronts use the OEM mounts or did you fab an adapter?

What is the plan for a parking brake?
