Well having had a set of EBC's for a set of Cupra R brakes in my boot for a month wihtout realising they were for a Cupra R, I will confirm that the carrier and calipers are totally different shapes and sizes... lol
The carrier/caliper is more square in shape and the pad carrier has two 'rungs' on the front to hold it in the caliper unlike the standard carrier that has a single 'nipple' that has a spring round it.. ;) aye aye..
you don't want to have to change the pads for the Cupra R brakes very often that is a fact.. they are £82 per set if you buy EBC's..!! and they are still thinner than the Pagids..
the Cupra R brakes are Brembo 4 pots aren't they.. so would they not be a fairly standard size..?? is there any info on the Brembo webby?
I would love a set of Brembo's, but I am under the belief that they are fairly expensive..!! :(
305mm from memory , ill check the disc numbers etc , but i do know that the brembo's use a carrier of its own , and £££££ to get the kit

Flapper/Swinny,
Tarox 6 Pots no longer an option.
So....what is the total cost of all the bits needed to whack the Cupra R Brembo set up onto my car!
Don't worry about fitting....i'll get that done by someone else for nowt!!
Cheers

£905.71 inc vat , for the parts alone , MIND YOU to say it is all available would be brave :rolleyes: as most of it is not even listed in UK ???
