Yes, it is.

It's also a Cadillac pattern.

However, 4.75" brakes can be fitted from late G-body cars.

Are the rotor bolts between the lug studs?

After you wake up with the sun at 6am on someone's floor, coughing up cigarette butts and tasting like warm beer, you may well change your opinion on this matter.

You're my age.  We're getting old.  Plus, now that you're married, your life expectancy has gone way down, since you're more likely to be poisoned by your wife.

So can this thread be locked now? I think we should limit Nick's semi-pointless threads to 30 pages. :lol:

The rotor and the outer bearing race are pressed together, and installed as a unit and held on by the spindle nut.

Yes, if what you're  asking is what I think you're asking: the rotor could be remachined for any number of bolt patterns.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

I didn't say it was pointless. I said it was semi-pointless.

Since I got a Jetta and everything, I figured I would do some kind of hippie tree-hugger shit today. I got a recycled oil change. :praise:

thx :lol:

I was hoping it would inspire some ideas ;)

I like how the diameter of the exhaust tip is approximately half of the heigt of the rear bumper. I shall see what I can do in that respect.

I took the air intake pipe off today to check the air filter (which was disgusting), only to find that whole tube and MAF full of oil. After some reading on VW forums, it turns out that this is a common problem, most easily fixed with a catch can.
