Fitting R32 brakes
Weston:
I've found a full brake set including 4 R32 calipers & 4 R32 discs. I'm very tempted to buy them as I need new discs & pads for my GTI anyway. What else would be needed to fit these assuming it really is just the calipers and discs?

As far as i'm aware you defo need new brake lines cos the old ones won't fit and if it doesn't come with them you'll need the carriers/bells?? not sure of the correct term for them
Someone more clued up than me will confirm anything else :happy2:

Weston:
Cheers :happy2: Just to add I'd also like to know rough prices to. The calipers & discs are up for £550, not sure if that's good or not

What I know is you can buy the front kits brand new including everything for £620 finished in Red from davehawthorne @sere seat in Ireland ,they are genuine OEM VAG parts.
I bought these and then sold my fronts for £175 on the internet.If you buy from Seat they come in red , Vw in blue,Audi in black .
I bought a set off fantastic rears on here in red complete for £200 . Advice was 80% off the braking was done by the fronts so it made sense to put new on the front .
I sold the old brakes and recouped £275. If you buy secondhand you could need to replace disks and pads early so what is the point ? new fronts is the way forward .I can forward you the parts list if it helps but its prob best to just ring dave at sere .The kit includes eveything new clips, hoses, dustshields ,pads calipers, disks ,etc
Weston:
Hmm I'll have to have a think. I was only going to buy better front pads & standard parts for the rest but thought this seemed a good price. Strangely I've already been in touch with David for prices for standard parts. Thanks for your help :happy2:
