Ruggy 10 Posted September 11, 2012 Hi, I'm looking at upgrading the brakes on my '95 8v. I have the carriers from a G60, am I right in thinking I can retain my standard callipers, use the G60 carriers and this will allow me to fit 280mm discs? Which brake pads would I go for, ones for the 8v or ones for the G60? As I understand it they have slightly different dimensions? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steVR6 10 Posted September 12, 2012 i've heard that you can do that too,but as far as which pads to use etc i dont know. i'm sure the lovely people on here will shed some light on it for you/us about the options and required parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wormy 0 Posted September 12, 2012 From what I remember, the 256 and 280mm calipers are the same, but as you mention, the carriers are different. So iirc you need: G60 (280mm) carriers G60 280mm discs G60 brake pads.. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
