lol, nick the hubs too as they are 5 x 112 pcd ;) But 8 pot calipers!

The kit comes with calipers, discs and pads brackets and braided lines and fits straight onto the Fabia/MK4 Ibiza platform, kits would also fit Octavia.

iirc Bill (ibizacupra) does them cheaper with plain discs

how about some trade discount ;):thumbup:

But they are not green.... ;)

Whats wrong with 330x32s the Ross? :D

2 suggestions for you, if I may:

1) Using VAG COM / 1552 change the brake bias and raise the ABS kick in point. Gives that "Oh my god, I'm being sucked into the tarmac" feeling, truelly awesome!

2) 320mm rears are the way forward (or not as the case may be) :D

You could always buy my Fabia vRS alloys :flipgrin:

Looks good Ross.... Mind your head on the windscreen.

Cheers Bill.

Just so you know (in case you didnt) the GT kit as per MK4 Golf, TT etc fits perfectly onto the Fabia and the MK4 Ibiza providing the correct wheels are fitted. Uses the same braided lines which fit just fine, a few clips to swap over thats all.

I take it these won't fit on the standard 16's Ross?

Nope 17" a minimum and only clear some wheels, may require spacers.

Bagder 5 has the wheel specifics but TT six spokes and comp wheels fit with no spacers I know that much, as do the Leon R rim like mine.

They look simillar to the brakes **** used to have on his octy vRS before he sold it.

The clearance between the caliper and the wheel was so small you would struggle to get a feeler gauge in there. These are the wheels from the 21st ann. Golf

The MOV-IT kits are pretty damn good, more like our Porsche kits that we do but more expensive than the GT kits as they use seperate bells and rotors.

On the Octy standard brake lines are OK as they are reinforced as standard so for anyone upgrading you only need braided lines if the std ones wont fit the new calliper, I believe all though I am not sure you will need them for Brembo callipers as Ross has done.

If you have wheel problems talk to someone like Ian Godney at Godspeed, he manufactures all his own bells, brackets etc so you can get the biggest brake you can into a given sized wheel. Even if you have the right diameter of wheel & offset it dosent mean that the calliper will clear the spokes so check before you buy.

All 4 pots are not the same so when you compare costs look at what you get, I went for 335x32 Discs with AP racing 4 pots, which were more than the Brembos but the Pads have a larger area against the disc & the callipers arent red (thats a personal thing & calliper colours can easily be changed before you fit them)

Also check costs of replacement discs, discs with seperate bells will probably be cheaper to replace should you need to
