312mm Brake Conversion

[DPJ]

They'll go on Mk4 Ibizas....I suspect they'll be snapped out of your hands !!

Thanks guys. So that's straight on, no alteration needed?

Mine - Leon Cupra.

 

[Guinness]

ah so I dont need the carriers? Im starting to understand, baisicly yoursetup will go straight on?

 

[mrcoyote]

Not sure if it'll go on yours as your hubs may be different...

 

[Guinness]

going to get diffrent hubs mate, just want to ensure that they will fit 100% if all I change is the hubs. Im silly, I know.

 

[T. Spark]

G - Aslong as the hubs are from a Ibiza PD130 or any car that normally has 288/312's then your laughing

Good luck on the upgrade, well worth it, esp if your going bigger power! Ive been speaking to OL1 aswell about it, as he wants to do what your doing

 

[Guinness]

aye hes been messaging me about it too. Got my injectors today

He is gunna be wanting my turbo and injectors and the stupidly cheap rate you got that at now if youve been chatting! lol! Aint gunna happen, as mine isnt a write off!

 

[Guinness]

exactly mate, didnt expect to get the parts cheap off a intact car. Im getting them from cars that have been written off but have damage else where. As long as the engine is in good nick I am buying them as they are cheap. The injectors came and look new mate, spending £35 getting them ultrasonicly cleaned then they should be like new.

Fot the guys currently running 312mm TT etc set up on OEM pads and discs, are you sticking with Beezer OEM pads and discs on the rear? The reason I ask is that My pads and discs need replacing ASAP I'm looking to fit 312mm up front, would oem be the way to go at the rear??

 

[Guinness]

oem for the rear mate, from what I hear the rear does very little on the beezer. The beezer back brakes just seem to rott away anyway, so Iv just changed mine with EBC standard for £48 incl delivery.

 

[mrcoyote]

That for the pads and discs or just the discs?

 

[Guinness]

for both mate. Jubious quality I know but have to be better than whats on.

 

[Altech]

What do you lot think about Mintex discs and pads for the 312mm set up? Are there any better make discs and pads that would make a drastic braking difference? Or are OEM parts just as good?
