tt/s3 brakes on cupra turbo under standard 16's?

m0rk · May 4, 2006

what callipers do you want to use?

bbsboy · May 4, 2006

Opps sorry, its for the audi tt calipers which ive been told are a banjo end, were the std cupra ones screw in.

m0rk · May 4, 2006

I just used Leon Cupra lines... but had to slightly modify the connecting end (but only slightly)

I'll see if I can take some pics when I scrap it.

m0rk · May 21, 2006

So they fit underneath standard mk3 cupra rims then i guess.

m0rk · May 21, 2006

yup - I might well take a file to the (solid) caliper edge so I can put a fag paper down there

RALF · May 21, 2006

So do they turn at the moment

m0rk · May 21, 2006

yup. just

so I'd like some clearance for when they get warm

What brake disks did you use? Im very wary about drilling the multifit disks that have 10 holes in them already

m0rk · May 21, 2006

Pagid Discs - they have 5 holes (so you 'merge' one)

but they fit fine

that's the amount you have to mill off.

bbsboy · May 21, 2006

Were can you get pagid discs from? sorry for sounding stupid, how many mm's is that you shaved off?

m0rk · May 21, 2006

it's about 3mm, but I'll measure it

pagid discs? Can't remember, but I'll have a search

bbsboy · May 21, 2006

Im guessing GSF will do them, thanks very much for your help, ill get it sorted this week, fed up with crap brakes lol

Thats a very American high school reply mork! :lol:

Hmm, im also tempted by this too!

I wish i knew someone who could machine these things!

Forbez · May 27, 2006

Is this conversion better than getting the brembo setup for the ibiza?

Im also looking at hi-spec's at the mo!
