Re: gti6 brake upgrade problem - Seb_Ryan - 19-06-2013

Are you chaning the carriers? The bit the caliper bolts to.. which bolts to the hub?

Re: gti6 brake upgrade problem - Seb_Ryan - 19-06-2013

So is the carrier not lining up?


Re: gti6 brake upgrade problem - Tyronnster - 19-06-2013

I know with mine had to use bolts from gti6


RE: gti6 brake upgrade problem - baz306 - 19-06-2013

the holes dont line up but thats the thing


RE: gti6 brake upgrade problem - zx_volcane - 19-06-2013

They should line up no problem, bolt holes on hub to gti6 caliper carrier


RE: gti6 brake upgrade problem - baz306 - 19-06-2013

thats what a thought but nope am starting to think ive been ripped off with my 283mm discs the caliper still needs to come out another 40mm so going to try and get my money back

they put me in mind as if there off a 406 coupe 2.2
