Cupra Brake Thread Gone Missing

[JHox]

Sorry if I'm missing something but...

There is a very useful thread on here listing the different brake specs, maintenance, upgrades etc. https://forums.seatcupra.net/index....-brakes-info-upgrades-and-maintanance.192247/

On that thread there used to be a link to a very useful post here: https://forums.seatcupra.net/index.php?threads/186468/
(I think posted by someone from SERE?) listing all the different part numbers to perform the upgrade to Cupra/ S3 345mm brakes. HOWEVER the link doesn't work anymore it seems that post has been taken down.

I was wondering does anyone still have the list of parts and part numbers required to upgrade to Cupra/ S3 brakes?

Worth noting that it’s probably easier to get custom flexi hoses made up, trying to get a standard one was a bit of a nightmare and the fixings are different at each end so I never actually found out if they actually existed, for my car at least.

I got HEL braided hoses for £50.

Useful responses guys thanks

My fronts are up for new pads and discs soon thought I may as well upgrade to the larger set up whilst i'm at it. Might be interesting to see what the insurance company thinks of this 'mod'.

Also what's your opinion on buying used calipers, carriers etc. off ebay? Good deal or worth pushing boat out and buying all new parts?
