car is Seat ibiza cupra petrol turbo 2004

had to order Cupra R disks as the other disks were too small

am i correct that i have AP brakes as standard if so what pads to order

very odd that i keep ordering Red Stuff pads that are too small

or do i have an R car, me thinks not as i know the R cars have two additional clocks

First question are you from the U.K as the continent had the AP's as an optional extra? Are the callipers red and say "seat sport" on them?

If so I believe that the red stuff pads number is DP3036C

Also discs for the front are 312x35x25

I bet your next post will be the retaining pins are stuck!!!

These are exactly what I got. Brembo Max disks and Red Stuff pads. The pads will have two holes in the top of them which is different than the standard "winged" VW ones.

I got these from amazon, was the cheapest i could find (ignore the photo, that is the wrong photo)

I buy mine from here: http://www.brakepartssuperstore.org.uk/contents/en-uk/d10803.html

£35 for the pads. OEM kit. £68 for the fron disks, again OEM kit.

Fit straight on and last as long as factory kit. These were for my Cupra TDI with AP calipers/disks.

I've been down the route of upgraded pads/disk in the past (even on my scooby) and unless your tracking the car they are a little numb when not up to working temperature on the road, IMO anyhow.
