The cupra R discs are 305mm and they would surely be a direct fit? Just my 2p worth!

really???? thought the difference was just the callipers or something?

Yeh lots of brembo calipers on ebay aswell but it seems like alot of work needs to be done to get them fitted. Custom carriers then a full brembo fitting kit. I managed to work out that if i got a set of porsche/brembo calipers, once you get the carriers done and get the rest of the bits, hoses, bolts etc it works out about the same as bills kit!

Just not worht the trouble IMO

 

[Mat]

true.... should see if badger bill would do a group buy

Bill: hope you're reading this

 

[ibizacupra]

lol - reading it yes.

 

[cupramillo]

So Bill.... how many people would you need for a group buy? IIRC your Brembo kit is 840+delivery, how much would you be able to knock off if we got other interested?


Im going to be getting a set off you within the month anyway, so i could hold out for longer if other are interested!

Anyone?

 

[Mat]

Sure I read on site earlier it's about £745 + carriage

edit:

latest prices from £745 GBP for the complete kit + carriage.

 

[cupramillo]

I really hope your right Matt but i dont think so. I have a thread in bills trading section and the quote was only from a month ago. At that price i'd order it now!

 

[Mat]

i'd say it's on his site so go with that. But the key word is "from"

So bill, possible GB?

What I meant was the discs would go straight on the hub and yes there will need to be a diff caliper mount.

Afraid not

 

[sparkie1984]

bugger! so id have to change the wheels, do they have to be 17s then to fit?

 

[Mat]

16s work. just need clearance at the back of the spokes. Spacers may help

 

[sparkie1984]

ah, ok sorry for the q's (its a steep learning curve for me) would be interesting to know what wheels people are running with this kit!

 

[cupramillo]

Ive got 17' Oz Superleggeras and i still think im going to need 5mm spacers on the front for them to fit, its all about the offset of the wheels, mine are et37 i think

 

[cupramillo]

I think in bills section there is a sticky thread containing all the info on what wheels fit and which ones dont and which ones fit with spacers

 

[sparkie1984]

is there? ill have a browse about then mate, thanks

matt the guy did not replace the 4x100 hubs to 5x100 as he already had a leon, hence 5x100.

305 discs will not fit with our callipers/cariers
