Post by: blackcountryboy on 31 December 2011, 17:44
hi there, i have just picked up (christmas eve) a mk4 1.8 t, looks like its had a bit of money spent on it looking at the receipts, forged engine, crank, cams, arp inlet manifold, garret gtx turbo, full milltek exhaust plus much more. My question which will probably be first of many lol is it has the front porsche calliper conversion but i want to put new discs on can you tell me what discs i need to get? or are they just standard dics? its got the lambo 19" wheels on it. all help gratefully received thanks

You will need to measure them, they could be 288 or 312, may even be bigger.

Or contact the person who you bought it off. Surely they would know ?
