GTTDI 140 4MO
« on: April 16, 2017, 10:06:38 pm »
Hi guys, not really new here but forgot my old user and password.  :signLOL:

some of you may know my dad, Stevw1. with his mk5.



Anyhow. A friend of mine just got a 55 plate GTTDI 140 in united grey but its a 4mo.

As always within the couple of hour mark were looking at what to do with it.

So my question is. How easy / hard is it to do a swap on the brakes GTI / R32 set up.

What size brakes does he have now / compared to GTI / R32.

Thanks for any help.

Matt
