Brembo brakes

[McDonutz]

Will the brembos from the cupra fit onto the 1.8 leon (with LCR rims attached)?
I want to get mine upgraded but I don't know exactly what I should be getting (I'm new to this stuff)

I have a couple of other questions I need to ask too, but I can't post pictures yet so they won't make a lot of sense

Yes they will fit, you will need one pair of Brembo calipers and pads, caliper carriers, discs and LCR brake hoses, when buying the calipers make sure that you get all the brackets needed, when i bought mine there where some missing so cost me a few quid more.

I just got a quote from the Stealers and they were asking for about 1.7k for a set of 4 (only the front sets were brembos, the rear wheels aren't brembos apparently).
Any ideas where I can pick some up that don't cost as much as my car? I'm really struggling finding parts for the my Leon.

Cheapest I've ever heard of them is £850.

Back are just red calipers. Bigger discs and carriers than yours, not sure adout caliper size.

There's some Ibiza Bembos for sale in the Accessories section, dunno if they're the same size, or a worthy upgrade.

Off topic slightly, anyone use any of these just to smarten up the rear calipers?

I have an equivalent AP caliper setup which will run on 323x28 disks same as LCR's
email me for more details.. I only have one of these kits, £940 inc vat

I am after these but it will be next year for me before i buy them. Would it be a worthy upgrade to switch the standard front brakes from my LC to the rear braking system, then put the Brembo's on the front? Just the normal ones on my LC look tiny at the moment and will look even worse when i put Brembo's on it lol

Wouldn't put the fronts on the rear, will really screw the balance.

Does anyone have the part numbers for the brembo carriers. brakets which hold the calipers to the hub. cheers

while i do understand why people mod cars; sometimes i am shocked at what people have planned with mods that shall we say are 'imappropriate' or 'worth more than the car its going on'.

This may well be as example of this.
