sr brakes to gsi

[orange_andy]

if i get gsi pads discs calipers, is it an easy fit to put them straight onto an SR, i aint done brakes before so just wondering how much of a carry on it might be, or how many hours labour it may be in a garage ect,

[Ste L]

no point, not really that much better, better using 16v stuff

not really hard to do

[orange_andy]

well i need new calipers for mr SR any ways so its either 80for new ens fitted or get some gsi ones, which works out cheaper, so there is a point really

[Philsutton]

2lt ones, unless you like wasting ?80

16v stuff and fit them yourself, it's the same difficulty job (which by the way is very easy) and will set you back about ?40.

dont do it i have agsi and the brakes are crap

[orange_andy]

they are far better than sr, 1ltr standard brakes

[Snowface]

Only better at cooling as they are the same diameter.
They don't offer the extra area for the pad to grip like on the ATE 16v ones.

were off the subject though, i aint looking for better brakes, i am needing a caliper crappy SR seizing calipers got offered gsi ones was wondering how easy they are to fit not whats the best, cheers

They will just bolt straight on in place of the SR brakes.
