wy906 0 Posted April 29, 2010 Looking to upgrade the front brakes from 280 to 288mm...... called my local VW dealer to enquire about 1998 Golf Mk3 VR6 Front Brake callipers, and been quoted £161.87, EACH! Nevermind eh! :( Second-hand it is then. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you fancy holding on for a couple of weeks I'll have a set of 288's with disks and pads to go straight onto a VR for sale, not the prettiest set in the world but with all new seals etc so working perfectly.

Might be interested in these if they'll fit under 15 inch Speedlines - assuming the other chap doesn't want first dibs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the offer..... TBH I’m only looking for a pair of working Front Brake callipers as I want to get new disc and pads. 4eyes2wheels can have first dibs. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
