Title: Audi tt disc's
Post by: Phil_M on 23 March 2005, 21:10
Hi all

I have just recently brought a 1.8t on a 2000 plate and have been offered some audi tt front disc's at a bargain price.

Just wanted to know if any of you guys have them fitted, and if they will fit straight on with no probs, also will it make that much difference to the stopping power.

P.s Superb forum Great help.    :wink:

Hi.  Recently got some new brake discs myself and looked into this too.  TT front discs are 312mm diameter, and 1.8Ts have 288mm fronts, so you'll need some modifications to allow these to fit.

Have a look at this thread: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=18501.0

calipers are the same between 1.8T VWs and TTs  the carriers are different.  You need TT carriers and rotors and thats all.

Do you think it will improve it by much. In two minds wever to bother or not.

I like my TT brakes.  I think its plenty of stopping power for the car and I have 300hp
