[pj2001]

Any know? i've asked before but got nowt and thought it'd be quicker and easier asking here than asking a dealer.

Thanks,

PJ.

Not meaning to hijack your thread, but does anyone also know if they are easy / cheap to fit as Im interested in upgrading too!!

 

[pj2001]

No prob's mate, it's the reason i'm asking so the more info/replies the better - it's an alternative to the TT Conv. and i like the calipers and OEM look they'll give.

Cheers matey. Yeah I like the OEM look too, although im tempted to go for some drilled discs with mine as they look better IMO.

iirc, they cost about £300 a caliper

 

[pj2001]

£300 a pop - pretty pricey considering the TT set up is app. £250 for the complete set up!! hmmmm, anyone had experience of both? are they worth the premium or really little difference.

Someone also said that spacers may be required to go over FR 17's? That correct?

That sounds right - the Cupra alloys are an odd offset IIRC to clear the callipers

 

[pj2001]

hmmmm, this raises the cost even further!! I guess it all depends if the AP's give much better results than TT's - but at £300 per caliper, plus mounts, discs, pads, spacers and new bolts to accomodate the spacers 'tis alot of cash for marginal gains. Anyone experienced the 2? i.e. AP's vs TT's?

Seat sport calipers are only on the mk4 cupra thats why the pads are so expensive as far a I know it the only VAG group car to have them, cause Seat sport and Ap designed them + they're 4 pots. Are TT's 4 pots? Spend over 2 weeks trying to find the right uprated pad but never did. Ended up buying from the dealers.

ive got them on my toledo (used to run the 312's ala TT) they do stop better than the 312's, end of really (by the way i can clear them with an et35 compomotive MO wheel 18")

 

[Kendo]

Im looking to upgrade mine too but think id be satisfied with the TT ones. Anyone know where I can get them?

 

[Triple D]

IMHO the TT setup are very good for there money, and do there job well, just that the AP ones do it even better.
