bought 312mm caliprs and carriers and pads...but need to buy discs....is it best to get oem TT ones or from euro car parts...or better to buy grooved etc...
Have looked through this thread and read up that i will need 312mm disks is this right?
I have bought some Seat Sport Calipers were told they were off a Leon Cupra but they look to be off the ibiza cupra as they say seat sport on them not brembo
They fit behind the 17" cupra wheels as seen pictures on this thread but i have 17" Leon FR wheels will they fit ?
Also will i need brake hoses or can i use my standard ones ?
And does anybody have any links where to buy hoses if needed and some grooved and drilled disks that will fit my seat ibiza FR
Had a quick look through and cant find them but have done a front break upgrade in the past and now in need of new pads. Ive got the 312mm ones, does anyone have the part number for new pads and discs?
I bought 312 mm APT discs from Eurocarparts which look great and brake well! plus fitted them with DS2500 pads and now the car brakes as it should with no fading..
hi guys i have just done the 312 set up on my golf with braided hoses from hose teknik (sister company to forge) and i must say it brakes far bettter than standard, obviously i cant say if its the hoses tho but i thought my car is like 11 years old so ill do them because of wear and tear and corrosion, these new ones wont do either! for £50 ish i think its worth it.
Also, if they are correct am I okay just cutting off the wear sensor wire?
Discs are new but not been stored well by the looks of it:
I'm currently thinking about changing the seals to be safe, painting the caliper probably will paint the edge of the disc in an attempt to stop it corroding.
If I was to upgrade to braided hoses is there a kit people have had success with? I've also heard/read different things about whether they are braided as standard or not some saying just the back are some all....
Is there a better fluid I can change to without having to flush every last drop out of what I have now? (standard stuff)
also
Mk1 Octavia VRS
Audi S3
Mk5 Golf GTI (only caliper and carriers discs won't fit)
Odd person has come across problems fitting Leon ones
A4 ones fit but need special hoses
Am I missing anything from these because they look very bare? Also, anyone shed any light to if they are 100% 312mm. They came from a 2001 1.8T 225bhp Audi TT (apparently)
