MK3 Artic Ibiza Cupra(Update,305mm disk's fitted)

[s20ty c]

i love the Porsche boxster calipers, where did you pick them up from and how much? what did you need to get them to fit??

 

[chrissy1502002]

I got them from DannyLad on here, urm they have got custom carriers so they just bolt onto the existing hub, also ive got braided hoses but they were about 2inches too short, so i fabricated some custom hoses which were about 2-3 inches which join onto the braided hoses. Oh i also fitted 5mm spacers to the front as without them the gap between the caliper and the inside of the wheel was a bit tight for my liking lol

I think i paid around £600-700 for them, i cant remember exactly.

Huge is an understatement lol, yeah ive got some 305mm disks coming to see if they fill the callipers better, and if not i will have to go bigger. I will find out on tuesday, so hopefully i will find my face against the windscreen lol

i Read somewere that Porche ones use 320mmx28 or 30mm ...Aint sure depending on the carrier i suppose..

 

[chrissy1502002]

Bloody hell, i may be investing on bigger disks again lol, money permitting! haha I have to say even with the original 280mm disck they are a huge improvement over standard!

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Im not sure which one they are mate...think there fronts with them Being Porche S ones but not 100%
