Originally engineered for the EMPI "Buggy in a Box" program, this Upgraded Rear Disc Brake Kit is the ultimate bolt on solution for street performance and off road reliability.

Upgrade your classic Volkswagen’s stopping power without sacrificing the iconic look of early-style wheels. Originally engineered for the EMPI "Buggy in a Box" program, this Upgraded Rear Disc Brake Kit is the ultimate bolt-on solution for street performance and off-road reliability.

This kit features a specialized 1-piece rotor design with the early 5x205 bolt pattern, eliminating the need for clunky adapters or multi-piece hubs. The "Zero Off-Set" engineering ensures your track width remains factory-spec, keeping your tires tucked perfectly under the fenders—an essential detail for high-end "nothing to hide" builds where fitment and stance are everything.

Why This is the Ultimate Brake Upgrade:

  • Zero Off-Set Design: Maintains factory wheel positioning. No spacers or adapters required, ensuring your 5x205 wheels sit exactly where they belong.

  • Modern Stopping Power: Replaces fading, heavy drums with firm, responsive disc brakes that dissipate heat efficiently—ideal for modern traffic or steep off-road descents.

  • Integrated E-Brake: Unlike many racing kits, this version includes a fully functional emergency brake setup, making it 100% street-legal and practical for daily use.

  • Simplified Bolt-On Installation: The 1-piece rotor and cast brackets eliminate "extra parts," reducing potential failure points and simplifying maintenance.


Installation Guide: Step-by-Step

Note: This kit requires the use of 15-inch wheels to clear the calipers. A professional brake bleed is mandatory after installation.

  1. Preparation: Secure the vehicle on jack stands and remove the rear wheels and factory brake drums.

  2. Clear the Spindle: Remove the old drum backing plate, shoes, and wheel cylinders. Clean the bearing carrier surface thoroughly.

  3. Mount the Bracket: Install the heavy-duty cast mounting brackets onto the axle flange using the provided gaskets and hardware. Ensure the caliper mounting ears are positioned toward the rear.

  4. Install the Rotor: Slide the 1-piece 5x205 rotor onto the splined axle shaft. Secure it with your factory axle nut (ensure proper torque to seat the bearing).

  5. Caliper & Pads: Install the brake pads into the calipers and bolt the calipers to the mounting brackets.

  6. Plumbing: Replace your old rubber lines with the included Upgraded Stainless Steel Braided Lines. These offer superior pedal feel by eliminating line expansion.

  7. E-Brake Cables: Route the new e-brake cables through the chassis tubes and connect them to the caliper actuation levers.

  8. Bleed the System: Bleed the brakes starting from the furthest wheel from the master cylinder until the pedal is firm.

Product was a gift for my wife. She's been using it now for a week, about 2 hours total and thus far it's a good gift. My wife likes the set as whole.

Color: 8-in-1 Deluxe Wine Set - Silver
Love love this set!!! Especially the wine aerator/Pourer it’s a game changer especially if you like to entertain. You can line up a couple of different variety of wine bottles attach the pourers and let your guest serve themselves. The wine pourer is measured so you don’t over pour and it automatically stops… love this and getting a few more pourers to have ready when I have guests iver!!

A Disaster, Don’t Buy 8-in-1 Set
Color: 8-in-1 Deluxe Wine Set - Silver
A Disaster. Can only give this 8-in-1 gift set one star. The electric aerator has a mind of its own. The second time it was used, an hour after the first pour, it then decided to start pouring on its own, drenching the counter and floor with wine until my wife and I figured out what was going on and got up to try to shut it off. It wouldn’t shut off and had to be pulled out of the wine bottle still running on its own. Half of a very good bottle of wine was wasted. It never did shut off. Had to be thrown in the trash outside still running. Funny now as I describe it, but not funny at all when it happened. The rest of the set so far is working well. If you have to buy this brand, please don’t buy the set with the electric aerator. It's fully automatic all right, but that’s a very very bad thing.

Effortless and Elegant Wine Opener!
Color: 7-in-1 Black, Size: Rechargeable Set
I absolutely love my CIRCLE JOY Rechargeable Wine Opener! From the moment I opened the box, I could tell it was well-made and stylish. The sleek design looks great on my kitchen counter, and it feels sturdy in my hand. The performance is amazing — it removes corks quickly and smoothly with just the press of a button. No more struggling with manual corkscrews or broken corks! The built-in rechargeable battery lasts a long time, and the charging base keeps everything neat and organized. It also comes with handy accessories like the foil cutter, which works perfectly every time. I’ve used it for several dinner parties, and my guests are always impressed by how effortless it is to open a bottle. If you enjoy wine and want to make your experience easier and more elegant, this electric wine opener is a must-have. It’s functional, beautiful, and makes a perfect gift for any wine lover! 🍷

Fabulous Product!
Color: 7-in-1 Black, Size: Rechargeable Set
This wine opener is fabulous! Foil cutter is sharp and works well. Easily removes the cork, then releases the cork from the corkscrew with a touch of a button. Also seals the wine which I have stored on its side in my wine refrigerator without any leaks. Charges quickly and I have opened many bottles of wine without needing to recharge it. Have had this item for a few months and if it continues to work this well, I will be amazed and very satisfied. Very reasonably priced as compared with similar products that I considered. Most of the other products cost more and did not do all of the functions that the Circle Joy does.
