right brake lines???pic pg 3
Re: Gti breaks to G60 (whats needed)
yes tim is right lol haha so all your gaining really is the diameter of the disc i thought the piston on the g60 brakes was slightly bigger
oh well they are bought now so will let you know when there all fitted with the good pads an discs with braided and flushed through im just thinkin that it is an upgrade over standard and should feel a bit better and hold up better for a bit track outings

Re: Gti breaks to G60 (whats needed)
GTI Brakes will always be rubbish no matter what discs and pads you use
The calipers just dont have the power to be anything better.
Re: Gti breaks to G60 (whats needed)
to true mate lol they are just crap
they should have come with 280mm as standard really. a question for you alex or anyone who knows do our standard set of pads fit in the g60 calipers? i cant wait to have big brakes under the 15" wheels they will mint

for ultimate cruise points, get them drilled and/or grooved
