GT tdi brake upgrade

(1/3) > >>

mjt:
If i upgrade my discs to 312 x 25mm on my  2007 2.o tdi will i have to change the calipers or will the original calipers be ok,thinking of a remap in the summer so would like better brakes,any idea how much new discs and pads cost?

apollo13:
The GT TDI calipers AFAIK are the same as the GTI......But you will need the GTI carriers as the GT ones will be no good aswell as 312mm discs and pads.

Andy:
think the calipers will be ok  but the carriers might need changing
ooop beaten to it :signLOL:
