Title: Brake upgrades
Post by: Tomotomo72 on 09 February 2020, 17:54

Hi there
I've got a 19plt gti pp with brescia alloys( love this car )
And I'm looking to upgrade my brake calipers to Audi tts calipers as from what I've read it's a bolt on upgrade apart from brake lines
Just asking if anyone has done this upgrade and also has brescia alloys and asking if I need spacers?

Just wondering. Are you struggling to stop with the normal brakes or planning big power upgrades?

Going to get brakes done along with exhaust and chip and filter then see how the money goes 🤣

I’m running the brackets and Brembo 4pots over the 340mm discs. They’re a superb upgrade but I’m running them under BBS and OZ rims so unsure of fitment with stock rims.
