that would of been a good buy, however thay are big calipers tho as they just fit behind 16" compomotives
i had about 5mm taken off mine, used Audi TT hoses, redrilled discs, and god im impressed by stopping power of them.
using the audi tt hoses i just filed the little lugs of the outer of the lug connecting to the hard pipe, then just cable tied them out of the way.
great modification, however do not try and use STD hoses, they are far far to short and get stretched on half lock.
Audi TT hoses are a must, they are 200mm longer, I have a first line book with brake hoses listed, maybe be able to take a pic if anyone else is interested in this mod.
Deffo impresssed by it myself.

I need some, I bought exsaxoboys brakes
Dont really know how much the hoses are worth though to make a reasonable offer
more progressive than brembo's - but perhaps less good 'top end'
but I've not had them fade, especially not since I've fitted my CM pads.
if you can get the bits cheap, and machine discs yourself it's fine.

I think they are a fantastic mod.. i find the brakes very very impressive once they have a bit of heat in them especially
Cant wait to fit mine, hooch is gonna give me a hand putting them on.
Just for info, do these fit? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Complete-312m...oryZ9889QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
and can the discs be used for replacements for the ones i have?

As mentioned, they wont fit straigh on. You need to mill off a few mill on the carriers and re-dril the discs.
And dont get them from there.
