1.9 Hubs And Driveshafts Needed For Gti-6 Calipers On A 1.6?

[c3peteo 0 1 Cars]

Hello, I'm new to this forum after buying another 1.6 gti ten years after selling my first one. My new 1.6 has an mi16 engine in and I want to beef up the front brakes. After much reading on here I've bought some front calipers from a gti-6. I'm going to keep the 205 master cylinder and get some braided brakes pipes from pug racing. A lot of the posts in this forum about this conversion mention 1.9 hubs and driveshafts. Will I need these to be able to fit my new calipers or will my 1.6 ones do?

 

Ah help greatly appreciated

 

Pete

you need base model hubs, or 1.9 hubs and shafts.
