Welcome to our new sponsor Lecatona, a brand dedicated to enhancing performance for VAG group sports cars, including SEAT, Audi, Volkswagen and Škoda. Specializing in High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) upgrades.
DS2500 is what everyone raves about, however a lot of other forums complain about the amount of dust and sqeek.
I got EBC Red Stuff which are for road use.
DS2500 s need some filing let me say, in their corners during installation.
They wont squeak...
In fact i have used 2 sets of DS2500s on my cupra and i only had some squeaks coming off them during hard braking, since too much powder is trapped...after a few miles they stop squeaking...
I had my brembo discs seriously cracked on my car lately so personally i dont ill ever get some drilled discs again. Decided to upgrade my AP calipers too...i was so dissapointed by that after just 5000miles approximately.

Funny that is exactly what people said about EBC! Also that they are for track use as they work better when warm. I do alot of short journeys you see.
Have to search under Audi TT though for 312
I have no clue which discs to get the names mean nothing to me doesn't seem to be one particular brand that is popular on this forum that I can see.
Best way to find out I think is a poll with standard TT, Black Diamond etc and the names people have mentioned on here
just got grooved ones http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290360457078&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT a was talking about it today with my mate who helps me with my car and he said he had some on his old car and they was good.
i got some standard cupra ones, they are really good and iv never throught about getting anyothers

This is gonna sound really dumb but when everyone asks what brakes to get when they do the 312 conversion why do people not just say get cupra ones if they are the same size? Are the standard cupra brakes not that great?

Are the Brembo one's the best to go for? Or which would be recommended in order from one as the best to three as the worst. I love the look of the Brembo's. Are these the one's you're talking about Aimez? http://www.dcperformance.co.uk/cheap/272874/seat/ebc-ultimax-rear-brake-discs/usr931.html
Another question, what is the thickest and thinnest that the discs can be? This is for Ibiza Cupra 1.8T Mk4. And which pads are better than the Ferodo 2500's? Would like to give Brembo pads a go.. Any opinions regarding this?

No I am just confused are the standard cupra brakes 312 the same thing as the Audi ones or are the cupra ones different?
I just want to know what 312 to go for for my upgrade, all I know is they need to be 312x25mm

I've been running those for over a year now
iv just gone for the grooved ones though mate, i believe you have drilled and grooved? the link shows drilled and grooved, but in the discription it says drilled and grooved disc's and also says just grooved
so i emailed them just to make sure they was what i was after

I didn't even notice that.. Alright, so how are the Brembo discs? Which are the best for the front? I dont mind going drilled and grooved, either way. But just want the best
Standard cupra setup is 312x25 thick with 34.5 offset (ie Audi TT discs) at the front
Rear is 232x9 solid. The same throughout the ibiza range (those with rear discs)
Anyone considered Rotordiscs? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ROTORDISCS-AU...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item4a9c03a7c3
