that one does for me :)

not unless you have VT* calipers and carriers mate.
IIRC the westcoast has solid discs.

though if you hammer your car it is worth the upgrade to VT* front brakes.

my front discks or vented i think if there vented is there sort of 2 discs with a gap? thanks

yeah if they are vented it looks asif 2 discs have been stuck together with a gap in the middle.

if you have got ventred discs then yes they should fit but i would not buy them.
the pads look good i would buy then but...
the dics look cheap and nasty and with drilled discs they can crack, even with a decent make they might crack.

i would recomend either some red dot grooved discs or some brembo max discs ( grooved also).

hi so would these fit and could i use any pads? thanks

these would be the better choice over the ones that you posted in the first link. However, if your wanting better braking then imo its well worth upgrading to the 266mm setup.

[fastsaxo7]

ok thanks alot :) what would i need to do for this upgrade calipper if so what would i take it off? thanks

hi iv been reading the guides, Secondly is the bigger grooved/drilled disk(big brake kit), uprated pads and std caliper with extension plates costing around £200+, this is better than just uprated disks and pads due to the increased surface area and the caliper is further from the central point of the hub than std so it can apply the same braking force with less effort. The disks are usually 283mm diameter and will only fit under 15" wheels or larger. these kits usually require some grinding to fit.
does thiss mean i could put a 266mm disck on my westcoast? it has 247 vented discs at the min , thanks

[DanT]

the 266mm upgrade goes under the 14inch vtr wheels fine.
the 283mm upgrade goes under 15 inch wheels fine.

If you need vt calipers and carriers, pm me, i have some for sale.

if you want effective brake disks you don't have to spend that much. We sell the maxtorq group N setup for less than £25 for the pair. If you want grooves though you will have to spend more.

[fastsaxo7]

how much for some group n ones with better then standard pads
