    Don't know if they are the same pal but I had to grind the corners of my 266mm calipers to get them to fit onto the struts

    il have to trial fit them altho i have been told uprated disks and pads are as good as fiting gti6 brakes so maby that will be the cheaper option than getin new disks callipers pads and hoses

    your kinda correct, the pedal leverage in a 6 is slightly different to the 106/saxo and the 6 brakes never feel the same in the saxo/106 as they do in a gti6. they are bloody sharp in my actual gti6 but my track car i could never get them to feel as good!

    You'll need to grind a bit off the strut for them to fit, nothing major though. If you want the real effect of gti brakes then get yourself a gti6 master cylinder. All you've gotta do is remove the seals for the header bottle and swap them for the one's from your old m/c.

    they will fit over vts wheels. only issue may be wheel weights if you have them near the caliper.

    i have a 306 gti master cylindar if you are interested?
