The new bug has all the power and the looks but was surprised that it only had stock drum brakes all round what upgrades can I use, thing sure does shift but dont stop too well. :rockon:

If your looking for disc brakes for the 66-77 STD Beetle,  66-74 Ghia fronts are a direct bolt on...If you can find used otherwise we or any VW shop should be able to get you what you need.
