I have just taken the m/c out of a Mk2 golf, it has four outlet points, 1 for each wheel station.

The 2 rear outlets go to a ballance junction at the back of the car and then split off to the wheels. The 2 front obviously go direct to the front wheel stations.

On the Golf that I race the ballance junction has been disconnected because it was designed for a car with seats and spare tyre and shopping and any other extra weight that you can think of.

I was thinking of using the golf m/c on the roadster but without the ballance jubnction, does anybody know if this will be suitable. I read in the book that the original car has direct brake lines to the wheel stations but only 1 brake line going to the rear and then being split at the rear axle.

I will be using discs on the front and drums on the back.
