Question

A friend wants to upgrade the brakes on his FTO, and has asked me where/what/how much?

I assume the FTO has "floating caliper" type brakes at the front, rather than the scoob 4-pot type. I've mentioned he should be able to get uprated disc & pad materials from most suppliers.

If he wants to go for monster calipers and discs, who does the kits for the FTO? AP? Hi-Spec? Brembo, etc??

Cheers,
Squizz.

I Know you can get disc's and pads for the front end upgraded,ie Pagid fast road or Pagid race RS42. The rear is a bit different I only know of standard pads and the disc's have to be specialy moded to suit not cheap!

Has it got the same stud pattern/hub as an Evo?A Brembo conversion would be nice.As you stated,Hispec would probably make one up,or try one of the Jap sites such as Checkerflag.

Thanks guys - Seems we can get him Black Diamond x-drilled & grooved discs and some EBC pads, for less than £200.

He's been scared off by the costs of the other systems.
