Default Hi spec billet 4 calipers help?!

Hi guys

Looking into buying these:



But have a few questions, did a bit of research and brought up stews old tread about his mk2 calipers.

Anyway, questions are -

Where can I get the mounts?

What size disc?

Seen on stews thread that EBC yellow were best as not much choice in pads (2011 tread so may be more out now) but is this still the best pad? What would others recommend.

Where can I get a rebuild kit?

Where can I get Brake lines?

23mm m/c needed too?

Cheers all!

Brilliant help as expected from you Muz

Yeah Scott bought them but is now breaking the car! For a bit of pocket money I can't complain.

I think it's best I give them an email tomorrow.

How's your car getting on?
