i know this has been covered heaps of times but after a good search im getting loads of different answers, will these be a direct fit with uprated tarox discs and braided hoses, or will i require the 406 master cylinder, and yes im getting them because they look the t**s lol
thanks

Dunno about the brakes but the 406 mc won't fit as it will sit at an angle. A GTI mc will do the job.

Just asking dude but how much are you paying for each part you need?just if its not too extorsionate i might go down this road myself?

It will cost you 200 for calipers 60 for std discs and 35 for pads 50 for braided hoses which you need. You might need spacers at 50 if not less now

They bolt on the std holes and that's it look on the faq. 1st page on my project for pics

I'm going to make a bracket soon to fit 302mm discs
