Honestly - by the time you've bought discs, carriers, hoses and paid all the labour to make them work you'll have spent WAY more than £250..

Ditch them and get something you know fits & works.

yea, im going to i think!

neg, did you get the R32 ones that were near your area? the ones that hufc got but the got refunded? i might get thease instead if you havnt.


If you need any games consoles or games, accessories, etc etc, PM me for my best price,

Can you get aftermarket discs/pads/hoses for the R32 brakes??

You could have some brake bling afterall Joe, just order the bits you need off Matt and cobble the rest together. Big set of 345 grooved discs and some DS2500s  :happy2:
Sideways yo!

Joe, you on UK-MKVS?

PM a guy by the name of DaveB1970 - he can lay hit mitts on all manner of refub'd Porsche/Brembo calipers & carriers and knows what OEM stuff they can be matched to.
Sideways yo!
