Brake caliper adapter, rear axle, on models Golf 2 3 VR6 Syncro for conversion to the Porsche Cayenne brake calipers, combined with the 310×22 mm brake discs from VWÂ Phaeton, rear.
The Porsche calipers are connected to the hydraulics of the vehicle and can thus develop an enormous braking force. However, these do not have handbrake functions. The rear axle of Golf 4 R32 / Audi S3 is additionally used for a handbrake brake caliper adapter. The hydraulic connection is thereby closed with a blind plug / closure cap, thus this serves only as a hand brake caliper.
Suitable for the following VW und Seat models (4WD):
- VW Golf 2 Syncro
- VW Golf 3 Syncro
Advantages of this brake system:
- top deceleration, without comparison with conventional brake discs
- better performance
- supplied material certificate
Required components:
- brake caliper: Porsche Cayenne, rear axle, reference 955.352.421 + 955.352.422 / Brembo referecne: 20.7673.03
- brake caliper mountin bracker: Audi S3 8LÂ or VW Golf R32, rear axle
- brake disc: 310×22 rear VW Phaeton, referecne:Â 3D0 615 601 D
- the bolt circle / PCD of the disc have to be modified (service available from EPYTEC)
- the caliper mounting brackets of the hand brake caliper should be slightly filed on the outer edge so that the disc rotates freely
Tips, information and advice:
- To improve ventilation of the brake system, we recommend removing the anchor plates/brake dust plates.
- For easy mounting of the rim, we recommend purchasing two of our wheel mounting aids at the same time >>go directly to the article here<<
- We cannot give you a generalised answer as to which rim size you can ride after your brake conversion. There are simply too many different wheel rims. For this reason, we have developed a template with which you can easily check whether the brake system kit fits under your rim. We have included a link to the template in the description. If your rim does not fit, you can simply use wheel spacers. >> Go directly to customised wheel spacers <<
- Install the adapter with the required components and then check whether new brake lines are required, as the old ones may not be long enough or the connection may not fit, depending on the model. Due to the significantly better efficiency, we recommend switching to steel braided lines. We have developed a steel braided line configurator especially for this function, which you can use to assemble and then install them according to your requirements.

- The handbrake cable must always be used from the installed calliper, which means that the new handbrake cable may have to be adjusted slightly. For conversions in which the original calliper is still used and the original handbrake cable can be used, you may have to route it more directly to compensate for the larger disc diameter and longer travel
