Upgrade your classic Volkswagen’s stopping power without sacrificing the iconic look of early-style wheels. Originally engineered for the EMPI "Buggy in a Box" program, this Upgraded Rear Disc Brake Kit is the ultimate bolt-on solution for street performance and off-road reliability.

This kit features a specialized 1-piece rotor design with the early 5x205 bolt pattern, eliminating the need for clunky adapters or multi-piece hubs. The "Zero Off-Set" engineering ensures your track width remains factory-spec, keeping your tires tucked perfectly under the fenders—an essential detail for high-end "nothing to hide" builds where fitment and stance are everything.

Why This is the Ultimate Brake Upgrade:

  • Zero Off-Set Design: Maintains factory wheel positioning. No spacers or adapters required, ensuring your 5x205 wheels sit exactly where they belong.

  • Modern Stopping Power: Replaces fading, heavy drums with firm, responsive disc brakes that dissipate heat efficiently—ideal for modern traffic or steep off-road descents.

  • Integrated E-Brake: Unlike many racing kits, this version includes a fully functional emergency brake setup, making it 100% street-legal and practical for daily use.

  • Simplified Bolt-On Installation: The 1-piece rotor and cast brackets eliminate "extra parts," reducing potential failure points and simplifying maintenance.


Installation Guide: Step-by-Step

Note: This kit requires the use of 15-inch wheels to clear the calipers. A professional brake bleed is mandatory after installation.

  1. Preparation: Secure the vehicle on jack stands and remove the rear wheels and factory brake drums.

  2. Clear the Spindle: Remove the old drum backing plate, shoes, and wheel cylinders. Clean the bearing carrier surface thoroughly.

  3. Mount the Bracket: Install the heavy-duty cast mounting brackets onto the axle flange using the provided gaskets and hardware. Ensure the caliper mounting ears are positioned toward the rear.

  4. Install the Rotor: Slide the 1-piece 5x205 rotor onto the splined axle shaft. Secure it with your factory axle nut (ensure proper torque to seat the bearing).

  5. Caliper & Pads: Install the brake pads into the calipers and bolt the calipers to the mounting brackets.

  6. Plumbing: Replace your old rubber lines with the included Upgraded Stainless Steel Braided Lines. These offer superior pedal feel by eliminating line expansion.

  7. E-Brake Cables: Route the new e-brake cables through the chassis tubes and connect them to the caliper actuation levers.

  8. Bleed the System: Bleed the brakes starting from the furthest wheel from the master cylinder until the pedal is firm.

Great Divider, Just Needed Anchoring for Outdoor Use
Color: Grey, Size: 6 Panel
This room divider is very nice—stylish, lightweight, and easy to set up. I’m using it outdoors, which may not be its intended use, and I found that wind can knock it over pretty easily. Once I anchored it down, though, it worked just fine and looks great in the space. Indoors, I imagine it would be perfect right out of the box. Overall, a solid purchase with just one small adjustment needed for my setup.

Good Quality
Color: White, Size: 4 Panel
They are made with good quality. However I bought them to help with blocking outside light and the white does not do that.

Very nice looking divider. We are using as a privacy divider around our hot tub. We have not left it out in the weather yet due to many storms coming through.

Great privacy option for townhome deck!
Color: White, Size: 6 Panel, Color: White, Size: 6 Panel
Deck privacy! I wanted a way to add some privacy to my second floor townhome deck. It’s been holding up well and doesn’t look junky! I used zip ties on one end so I can open and close it as I wish. Great solution to living in close quarters to your neighbors! I purchased the six panel and it’s a perfect size
