Time to change front brake disks and brake pads. I always had thoughts that my 340mm kit from 280hp Superb is a bit on heavy side.
340mm ATE vented disk
Caliper with pads
And I decided to assemble kit with better braking characteristics and lighter.
So , I took Brembo calipers from Renault Megane 3 RS 275hp
Brackets to fit 354mm disk
My favourite brake pads
+ few grams for pins and springs.
Brake disk temporary took EBC simple vented , as two peace cost to much for test. This EBC rotor weight 11.800kg
Plan is to migrate to two peace rotor later on. ECB tuning 345x30 two peace rotor weight 8.500kg. Ideally some forged wheels later on as well. But will need to rob a bank first
Brembo DOT5.1 purchased as well. This calipers better to run on 5.1.
In theory everything have to be bolt on , but this is what I think might not be the case, have a filing that bolts a bit to long, but when I install my new brakes , will put here step by step guide for ANY MQB car
