RE: Rear disc conversion a big success
Yes, the stock (and mostly non-existant) prop valve in the 82 Roc works
fine with a rear disk setup and a 22mm M/C as long as you don't upgrade the
front calipers.
BTW anyone know what years came with what M/C. I have always been told
that the 16V Scirocco was the first with a 22mm M/C.
Roland, which brake booster are you using??
