Question about how can I upgrade my Ibiza TDi brakes

[THVNDER]

Hi mates, I'm new here in this forum and I'm from Spain but I've been reading your messages since few months ago. I have a Seat Ibiza TDi with 90HP remaped to 118HP and now I would like to upgrade my front brakes... I have the Ibiza Cupra alloys and I'm finding bigger calipers and bigger discs too. What do you recommend to do?

Cheers!

Hi mate,

I am upgrading my front brakes also. Your's should be the same size as mine (253mm). I have gone with Cupra callipers and discs (280mm) which should fit straight onto the 253mm carriers. So my advice would be to go and find yourself a set also. I have heard that Golf G60/GTi brakes fit also, which I have a set of, so if you struggle to find any I could check if they are the same and send them over.


Cheers,

Hi, ok, I think is the best choice... I've found front calipers with pads from a Seat Ibiza Cupra for 100€. I've taken some photos...
