A Few Questions

Recommended Posts

So I could fit vented discs fom a 306 dturbo without changing the calipers? What about pads, I take it 306 Dturbo pads wouldn't fit my Junior?

No, the vented discs & pads won't fit the calipers made for solid discs, there isn't enough width in the pad guide for them.

 

The pads are a totally different shape, you will have to use the 306 D turbo or 205 1.6 / 1.9 GTI calipers to use the vented discs with pads to suit that caliper.

 

Assuming your car has the bendix calipers, the 1.6 GTI calipers are the only one that will accept the pads from your Junior.

really no, 1.9's are close enough <_<

Gti6 calipers knocked the balance weights off my wheels behind my standard 1.9 gti wheels!!::

(I put SMR's back on instead of the Speedlines as they had more tread!!)

 

 

 

Cheers guys, maybe i will just have to buy some SL434's....... what a shame :D

 

Or is it a case of spacering them out?

15s catch on the front arch lip and the double skinned outer as well as the rear bumper.

 

195/50/15 do not fit in base model arches, trust me. :lol:

 

rear is the problem you need to grind the lip off but cant have any back passengers

 

It only catches just slightly on the outside of the tire.

 

Alright Sherlock :ph34r:
