Does it just need that little bit smaller diameter to fit behind wheel as the R32 are 365 are they not?
Very nice anyway.

My original brakes (Cupra / S3 / R32 - all the same bar colour) were 345mm  :happy2: 
But the calipers were made of lead and steel and bricks lol

s3dubbin:
Excellent write up Mike brakes look awesome, so are we talking £850ish for full set up? Cheers, Stevie.

My bad yes of course they are.
I am just wondering, to keep as oem as possible, whether it is possible to fit R32 discs then?

h4rdy:
I imagine the position of the disc on the rotor is different to enable it to sit further back maybe?

To use oem Cupra / s3 discs you want the DB9 setup that  'Gti mad' bought off me. That needs MC upgrade though.

Thanks mate  :smiley: depends where you get your calipers from really.  I paid about £950 with gleaming calipers but had my nqs bbk to help fund it / soften the blow lol.
