Okay so my current brakes are ridiculously warped after a bit too much B road action and as im going to have to change anyway i thought about getting the better 266mm brake setup.

However me and car parts well upgrading them anyway don't always go to plan so...

Off the top of my head i will need:

Calipers - any idea off what model/year/part number i will be needing?
Discs - Again what model/part number will i be needing
Pads - ""

Do i need anything else for this conversion? Again part numbers or info would be greatly appreciated

Also as i have just sourced a set of 106 gti raptor wheels in 14" will these brakes fit behind them okay?

Would it be worth just getting a vts/gti setup as im assuming this will be a lot cheaper?

Its for a car that i use for commuting. It doesn't make sense to buy a new car at the moment or even own a second car just for track so fancy using this just to stave off the boredom and also save me hundreds on hiring cars to take on track.

This is why it doesn't matter if you have a krap car on track can still be fun and can still corner like a beatch!
