S3 wishbones and hubs on 312mm gti brakes
« on: January 22, 2011, 09:30:17 am »
Hi guys in the process of buying Bobby's hubs and wishbones for my GT tdi, I have full GTI brakes on at the moment and just wondered if I would have any issues fitting the hubs? 

Are the S3 hubs any different to the GTI ones in regards to disc fitment and offset?

Cheers

Darren

Guess Ill be needing some new bolts for the brakes,  M14 but longer due to the extra thickness of the S3 bearing carrier.

S3 - N 910 849 01 = M14x1, 50x55

vs

GTI - N 909 488 02 = M14x1, 50x35

Hello fellows,

I'll fit my S3 hubs instead of the cast iron.
Which new or different bolts do I need?
I'm little confused now . . .


- brake caliper? (above)
- ball joint?
- strut mount?
- arm mount front?
- arm mount/ALK?
- anything more?
