190 brakes V's standard cdt
Hi, I'm sure the info I need is in here somewhere but for quickness....
..can someone please explain the differences between the standard brakes on a MK1 115 CDT and the "bigger" 190 brakes. I don't know if it's bigger discs, whether it's different pads or just the caliper brackets different to space them out a little, whether the calipers themselves are different - you get the gist. Also, looking at pagid pad prices on ECP, I put my reg number in and it gives me 2 options with different sized pads and says to check which ones I need before ordering?? And lastly, who made the original pads when it left the factory? Are they still available? Any help will be great Thanks

You will need calipers, carriers and pads and discs, 190 discs are 325mm as opposed to 284mm as standard.
I have both my cars done with this conversion , and you do getting better stopping power.... |

If you hold on till the National you can see what mine looks like as i have drilled and grooved mtec disc's on our Kermit and the fishing truck has standard 190 disc's, you can try both out if you want to see the difference..

You will need 18 inch wheels or 17 inch starspokes as well.... I would use a piston refurb set and braided hoses too....
