Brembos

[tripdiesel]

Im going to refurb my brembos soon, what i wanted to know is what is the standard spec for the ones fitted to the UK Cupra R. I.E rotor size, pad size, etc also what type of brembo are they?

P.S have searched nothing really on specs out there already

Cheers

is that a p1 in the reflection lol if so i blew one up lol ..back on topic why do you need to no that are you not just rubbing them down and re lacqureing them

I am looking to do the same thing as Dan already knows i think, i am just going to rub them down and have a god at re painting them in yellow to suit my car and new alloy colour but i dont know which paint and laquer to use and i am unsure as to how to do it properly and then ofcourse i need to get a hold of some Brembo decals of the same size and again i dont know where to get those from either, i will have a look around but if anybody has any adive i would appriciate a nod in the right direction

e bay for the sticker mate i have few .... or any vinyl shop .. look here at my mate leon with his calipers in yellow look really good think i got the page if not its page35 http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=181695&highlight=b3lsy&page=35

done on the car and with a paint brush and lacqure over the top come out perfect

oh and hamerite paint from b and q its metal paint and takes the heat .. halfords paint is dear and just the same

 

[DannyC87]

i think he is more looking to replace seals etc in which case he will need the piston sizes / part numbers

 

[JoeR225]

ah that helps i will look for the hamerite paint, dose laquer come with that? or is that the resin that make it set hard? found some decals on ebay 6 for £4 so not an expensive job, just a bit time consuming, got a bit list that needs done to the car all of which are relitavly cheap and easy to do for example tinting lights etc just going to take one weekend and get it all done, might go down to my mates house and do it when we do the rims

 

[Murdered LCR]

you need to get some laqure as well mate

 

[D.K]

You should'nt need Laquer if your useing Hammerite, I never have before.

Cheers all for the response, im after the part numbers to do a full rebuild on them, they have covered 70k now so i want to give them a full refurb, seals, check pistons etc. i will sort the discoloring out aswell.

Also what type of brembo is fitted as standard to the R's... i.e are they brembo GT's
