Estate brake upgrade - Willo - 22-11-2012 What's the easiest safest best upgrade for the estate braking system it's currently a pov spec model NAD RE: Estate brake upgrade - CJ_Derv - 22-11-2012 ![]() ![]() RE: Estate brake upgrade - ben87 - 22-11-2012 buy my gti callipers and discs and rear discs off me ![]() http://306oc.co.uk/forum/thread-7605.html RE: Estate brake upgrade - gareth7 - 22-11-2012 As Ben said, GTi-6 calipers are the easiest and most popular upgrade mate.......as long as your wheels are 15" they're a straight fit. RE: Estate brake upgrade - cully - 22-11-2012 easiest upgrade would be better pads ![]() Ive fitted greenstuff pads to the front and it made the car a lot more stoppable RE: Estate brake upgrade - Willo - 22-11-2012 I'm just starting planning now as gonna need to do them in the new yearbooks like to change callipers I gotta get new wheels but might look at them green stuff pads though (22-11-2012, 11:24 AM)CJ_Derv Wrote: Won't do much for fuel economy but it'll stop on a penny lol RE: Estate brake upgrade - swampy - 22-11-2012 (22-11-2012, 12:13 PM)cully Wrote: easiest upgrade would be better padsuntil they leave horrible deposits on your disk that make them feel warped when you brake Far better pads out there!!! Gti6 calipers Braided brake lines BREMBO disks DECENT pads Good fluid RE: Estate brake upgrade - cully - 22-11-2012 no ones got a good word to say about the greenstuff pads ive not had any problems with them they were a good upgrade for me without spending the earth! £45 a front set .....howmuch are mintex 1144 upgrades? RE: Estate brake upgrade - gareth7 - 22-11-2012 twice that I hate to say RE: Estate brake upgrade - CJ_Derv - 22-11-2012 I know MPG would be drastically noticable haha Im going down Brembo route me as already had them on blaze they do fit under 15" just with spacers RE: Estate brake upgrade - Ricky - 22-11-2012 For an NA diesel the HDI 266mm kit with decent pads and discs would be more than enough to stop it. RE: Estate brake upgrade - Willo - 22-11-2012 Will hdi brakes fit under 14 inch steelies and what parts would I need RE: Estate brake upgrade - gareth7 - 22-11-2012 yes mate, a lot of HDi's came with 14" wheels as standard. All you'd need is the callipers, discs and pads. RE: Estate brake upgrade - spike2002 - 22-11-2012 I have hdi 266 calipers and poss discs and pads for sale ![]() RE: Estate brake upgrade - Just Sean - 22-11-2012 So do i, brembo disks and pads RE: Estate brake upgrade - Eeyore - 22-11-2012 gti brakes will be the easiest upgrade. Brembos cost a fair bit. The standard 266mm setup is surprisingly good on the estate! I swear the 266mm setup on the estate is better than the gti callipers, drilled and grooved discs, mintex pads and braided lines on the 1.8 D: Maybe it has a stupidly sized master cylinder or something! RE: Estate brake upgrade - Just Sean - 22-11-2012 im also selling a '6 master cylinder RE: Estate brake upgrade - ben87 - 22-11-2012 buy seans master cyclinder my callipers and discs swampys braided brake lines and youll have an awesome little set up ![]() haha RE: Estate brake upgrade - Just Sean - 22-11-2012 Everyones a winner! |
