Do these brakes bolt strait on the mk1 octavia vrs ??? Info would be appreciated

Yes

 

 

Nice what did u pay for yours

Between 400 to 500 will get you a good set with newish pads and discs

I'll defenatly be investing I brand new discs and pads front and back but the car seems to quick for the brakes lol

Mine were 450, plus an extortionate shipping cost to NZ due to the package weighing 20kg.

 

 

 

 

 

They're very good - they bite very quickly and stop you nicely

Rob, did you have to upgrade the master cylinder, or is everything else just standard with the exception of the brembo's ?

Everything else is standard.

An with Ferodo DS2500 pads they're GRRREEEAATTTT (to quote Tony the tiger)

Think u need 5mm spacers with these?

So may want to budget that in as well mate

yes for spiders you do need a spacer, the wheels rob has are a different offset

i don't like this topic cause i'am getting into trouble with the missus, this isn't good for my relationship :S

To be fair to the missus this brake upgrade would make your car stop quickly there for making it safer:)

Just a pity the guy behind u didn't have as good brakes as u. Once you peeled him off your boot lol

i could argue with her about it but shes more like a tesco value shopper >.<

You see big brakes are very much like johnnies. Better to have one and not need it then to need it and not have one

Haha, had to be from a fellow scot

Ken fit like pal:)

Jezz got to be either north or south of glasgow :S

Neither chief. Up north sheep shaggin' Aberdeen

Are really necessary hoses from the Leon R? Vrs calipers are also M10 so where is a problem with standard hoses? I can buy Brembo brakes but only calipers without hoses.
