actually you could just fit 300mm disks under 15's with the right 4 pot caliper.

Is it just the fronts or the back as well?? Disks that only just fit behind the wheels that are on look great.

Just the fronts. My standard brakes are crap and I went for the more expensive ones last time and they're still shit. Would of eventually needed bigger brakes anyway to stop more power and these come up cheap Icon_cheesygrin

I agree, bigger brakes FTW. I spend 500 quid on EBC discs and pads for the Impreza front and rear and they're no better than standard. Will be getting some bigger discs and better calipers next time.
so is a bigger engine going in this then?

Just be carefull though in the Saxo with gti 6 brakes if I pressed brakes quite sharp the back end stepped out. It can catch you out

I had same thing with Tarox G88`s and their "fast road" pads, really poor from cold then more fade at the other end than originals-if ya can cope with brake squeal and alot of dust ive got mintex 1155`s in the front an they`re loads better even on the std discs that ive now got on the front-g88`s are about nackered thats on the bk so will be replacing with std discs again and 1155 pads.

Cant justify spending big money on brakes on a car worth what mine is-fuck that.
