soz about all the question im all new to the fabia use to me jap cars and i just wanna make sure its all done right if im gonna be spending some big bucks on it

cheers chris

You need 5 x 100 in those wheels - and the tyres need to be 215/35 R18 - 225/40 is too big for a fabia vRS

You can get TT brakes for around £250, or second hand brembos go for around £500.

cheers mate thats awesome

where can i get the tt brakes from wats the ones on ebay they have

SKODA FABIA VRS GROOVED BRAKE DISCS EBC GREEN PADS 1.9 on eBay, also Brake Components, Performance Tuning Parts, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 20-Jul-08 21:19:42 BST)

they any good and would they fit straight on or would changes need to be made

saying that i aint loving the gold wouldnt look clever on red

would 17inch wheels be better than with a suspension drop

There was a guy on here and Ebay called "golfturbo" who did full 312mm kits, with delivery miles only, for about £250. Can't see any on Ebay though at the moment.

I personally prefer 17s to 18s, especially if slamming it a fair bit. 17s can use 215/40 R17 tyres which give less discomfort due to thin sidewall. Some have run 18s, but I think 17s is a happy medium.

I paid £112 for some 312mm ones on ebay. Put new discs and pads on for £130 and a tin of green hammerite £5 = £247

the ones your looking at are standard size vrs discs 288mm...if you want to upgrade to bigger brakes you'll need

VW Audi TT Skoda Seat Upgraded Brake calipers on eBay, also, Volkswagen, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 27-Jul-08 22:30:42 BST)

you will need 2 x calipers,2 x carriers and 312 discs...either from ebay or maybe a vag breakers yard as the calipers are the same on most mk iv golfs/octavia vrs/audi tt.

cheers lads thats wicked

so they just fit straight on i presume

ill have to go around a few brakers yards see wats lying about save meself some money maybe

or if u can keep an eye out on some kits for me plz

think ill go for the 17s then

how much could i drop it

im thinking coilovers

i see some ppl have just done springs or done a complete set

wat u reckon
