My Silver K1 & Track 172 Cup

I finally found time to open my Forge box :)

Before I did tho I debadged the 'Cupra' off the boot lid and fitted my Forge DV hose :)







Then I dug my new brakes out :)















So Forge 6pots with 356mm floating bells and rotors :)
After having AP Racing 4 pots on the Ibiza I couldn't not have big brakes :)

Think wheel change might be on the cards too :)

Only down side is the calipers are black so I've had to order brand new S3 vented rear calipers and carriers in black from TRW in Germany.
I've managed to get them brand new along with Brembo discs, brake pads and ATF Racing blue fluid cheaper than I've seen second hand ones sell for :)
Just gotta wait 2-3weeks for delivery.

I was going to get a set of the Forge brakes and then seen Andrew AKS BBK and went for them instead.
They look like a good kit and in black very stealthy.
 

:thumbup:

Just add HPFP :p

Some tasty mods ;)

Yeah defo, just trying to sort some money for HPFP ;)

Those brakes looks beefy as fook!!

How much they set u back? And where from?

Yeah they are huge lol

Got em direct from forge in the end for next day delivery :)

I looked at a few options including AKS, I liked the stealth look to much :) only bad thing about this kit are the pads but that's just my opinion.

Be nice if they got under the OE wheels lol :)

Got the brakes out last night and put the caliper over the disc.





Then couldn't resist getting a wheel off to see if they cleared the spokes



Good news they did



Can't believe they cleared and by a fair bit.

Want to get them fitted but not sure weather to wait for the S3 rear and flush the system.
