6n2 w/ Lupo GTi Brakes

[Adam-]

This topic has been tried to be covered before, but never got completed.

I've sourced a set of Lupo GTi brakes (calipers and carriers), but I'm wondering what else I'll need to get them on.
I've only got a 1.0, so obviously the 8v hubs, and have read that i'll need 16v hubs (or the ones off the GTi) for the brakes to go on.

The "For Sale" Bit:
50. Lupo Gti 256mm Front Calipers / Carriers :-
51. **256mm Discs – Solid x 4
52. **Pagid Pad Part worn x 2

There is no mention of hubs, and I've only read that you need 16v hubs, what are the differences?
Heeelpppppp?

for the rears of course you need the hub as well as you have got drums but for the front I think all 8v and 16v hubs should be the same (not sure though) just make sure the bold pattern for the carriers match

You need 16v hubs as the carriers and calipers mount different to 8v ones

there for the fronts, not the rears

[dub6n2]

why are there 4 disks then?

[Bepe]

must be spare discs as the rears are 239mm not 256mm

yeah that's what I was thinking as well... and why not ventilated disks ?

btw better not use used pads as they wear out according to the surface of the disk they are on and if used on a different disk it could damage it (according to the garage I go to at least)

I never even clocked that there was 4 discs, haha!

It's just the fronts I'm doing, I'll do the backs later.

So I need to get the hubs for the front, too? Do i bother taking the pads, or just buy new ones?

[Bepe]

personally i would buy new discs and pads but if there is plenty of meat left on them then dont bother, as for the hubs, yes you'll need the 16v hubs or GTi or TDI ones
