Been round to several Independent garages today to see if I can get my Big Brakes fitted. Lots of Head scratching ....mmmmmm...."You sure they fit" ..mmmmmm 2 or 3 Hours work..."Will the callipers catch on the wheel".... mmmm Don't think they'll fit...."Are you sure they'll fit"......Why don't people belive you!!!!!!!! If I say they will fit THEY WILL FIT Anyway anyone on here like to fit my big brakes...Can travel and will pay in lots of beer Tokens Here's hoping Andy PM's please

Looks like you are a bit far away for me

I'm sure if you were willing to travel a small ways to the Northants area, our very pwn Lummox would do them for you. I don't think there would be any head scratching and "sure they'll fit?" from him.

They will fit as you said even jabba asked the same question. I think you will need to used the original hoses though :confused:

Lummox did offer to help me out if I wanted to have ago myself but being that I'm very lazt and every time I've tried to do something on the fabia it's gone wrong, I let Jabba do it for me.

I think some other members have fitted their own, like Stu. It's not meant to be that hard.......yeah right

What does the kit consist of, Mike?

I'll try most things but Brakes.........No.........Managed to change a light bulb once...Leave it to the Experts

just get a local mecganic to do it mate, shouldn't take too long. if they doubt they are gonna fit then tell them if they don't fit you'll pay double and if they do they have to do it for free

I tried that once and ended up dropping it into the engine bay took me an hour to find it!! All fun stuff I guess :confused:

Nick the "kit" is what came from Steve (turbogolf?) Audi TT Disc, Pads, Capillars, carriers and the attached hoses.

OK by carriers are we talking hub carriers, or the fixed half of the caliper (there seems to be a conflict of nomenclature, occasionally).

If I say pass does that help. Only going on what someone told me

I would be more than glad to fit them for you.

The Guru - It is fabled that he can smell a 312mm kit from a 1000 yards (he can paint them as well although not from such a distance I believe) :P

It isn't a difficult job and probably only an hour, but you are doing the right thing - if you can't do it don't mess with it.

not with my methods

Use the TT brake lines as supplied if you get a 'Golfturbo' kit

This might help Nick
