   you need calipers, carriers, disc and pads
   
   you need to have 15" alloys or bigger to fit the 283mm setup

   just make sure the disks are the right offset!
   
   Also some 15's are VERY close to the carrier, my 205 speedlines were like 2mm tops away from the carrier. My speedline turini's had plenty of room

    £120 brand new?
    
    Doubt it but would be interesting to see.
    
    GTi-6 owners club Tend do have sets going in region of £100, worthwhile considering a decent set of discs can cost you that for the standard caliper
