Twin Piston Evo brake package

[VIN18M]

Hey guys, selling a set of Evo 276mm front discs with Magna/Evo/VR4 twin piston calipers.
I bought these off BYBY5L a couple of weeks back and realised I cant run the discs because the GTI runs 4x100 PCD (idiot!).
Spent a whole day cleaning the calipers up with the cordless drill using a wire brush fitting, masking, then gave them three coats of VHT caliper paint. I painted the centers of the discs too.
Discs are close to new thickness and just need a machine.
My stupidity = your gain, just looking to get my money back on these minus the paint and the labour - $170 for everything plus postage. Discs, calipers and lines.
Cheapest bolt in brake upgrade going around, and shiny silver!

re-drill discs?

 

[VIN18M]

Not much room to drill them, they are 114 x 4 already.
I'm just going stock size cross drilled and dimpled rotors with ebc yellows.

 

[VIN18M]

They also run a 69mm centre and the GTi runs 64mm

Im pretty sure my jumbuck discs are 276mm.
Na not sure. But I have magna tr hubs and I think magna discs, with the jummy calipers.

Maybe they are 256 or something. ...

 

[VIN18M]

Yeah they'd be 256mm like the GTis ID say Jack.

 

[4piknup]

I think you are right

 

[EVOCPE]

Just redrill the rotors, there's plenty of room, alot of the ce and proton guys do it when they go 276mm or change to 5 stud using fto brakes/hubs front and rear

 

[VIN18M]

I'm more concerned about the 69mm centers on these, stock GTI runs a 64mm centre, so 2.5mm smaller all around, not real keen on putting that much load on the wheel studs, especially with the power I'm making now.

By the time I go to the cost and effort of redrilling, having a spacer machined, potentially having to change master cylinders and messing around with fittings. I can get better rotors and pads for potentially the same result.

 

[4piknup]

You can get the hubcentrics on ebay cheap. I know they are for rims but could use for discs as well.
The studs take the load if you have centrics or not. The correct location is only to locate radially.
Master cylinder should be ok, compare piston surface area of single spots to the twin spots.
Redrill at home. No biggie, the rim clamps them, id use a drill press tho.

But its your deal. Glws

 

[VIN18M]

Yeah I checked out the centrics online but couldnt find anything the right size.
Gonna go the drilled and slotted option anyway..

Apologies for the dumb question (but if I don't ask I'll never know!), will these fit a CC GSR on stock wheels ?

I think the stock GSR is already 114 x 4, just not sure if discs and calipers will fit under the standard wheels. Could be interested regardless...

I know, I should do some more research but after a bottle I'll leave it for tomorrow...

I had mine redrilled....cost me sweet fa

 

[Harley Cummins]

Sent you a PM as I'm interested.

 

[VIN18M]

Hey Harley, I texted you yesterday but didn't get a response.

Just checked the number against your PM and it's correct, so not sure what happened there...?

PM sent...

 

[BYBY5L]

Whaaat! Oh man I apoligise cos its something that I did know! Just didnt think about it though,
id offer ya the hub centres I have but then you'll have mis matched studs! Anything I can do to help just let me know ay

 

[VIN18M]

Nah no worries at all mate, I did my research and took a punt on them - obviously didn't do enough research!

It's a shame, they cleaned up so nice haha!

short version No.... they will not go"under" a stock gsr wheel. But are seriously worth doing the upgrade over the stock front brakes

 

[Dave_GSR1.8]

Thanks Brian, was not sure, now I know!

 

[CYBORG-X]

You can buy the gti rotor in 276 to suit this conversion... just an fyi...
