Booo.... I didn't get to see that pic yet... I am always for Japanese Girl.... Just not sure about the dogs bum. Saying that, I still can't get how low you guys get the car. It looks good, and I love the look. But it can't be practical at all, right? I am used to low cars, but that is too low even by my standard.

That sounds good, what kind of price are we looking at? And what is involved in swapping over to the GTi Brakes?

I have been looking around and there just don't seem to be any sensible upgrade for the 239mm really. Normally when you increase the brake disk diameter, you increase the brake torque and produce stronger braking. It isn't a 100% cure, but it is a pretty good and economical upgrade. Have anyone got any success using uprated pad? I am trying to stay away from EBC if I can, but not sure what other brand do uprated pad for this caliper.

There is quite a big difference between an 8v head and a 16v head... I think even with your normal bolt on mod, it won't be anywhere near 100bhp as you are asking to increase quite a large % in terms of power.

Been searching through the forums and I am pretty sure I am working on a 1.4 SE Lupo with 75bhp, therefore making it the car with the 239mm front brake.... Which is shocking!!! The brake disk had warp again and it was only replaced about 6 month ago. So its time to start looking for an upgrade, and I want to ask what is available out there? Looking at a few guys doing upgrade to the 239mm to the GTI 256mm or the G60 280mm, but all require a new hub which is difficult to find and expensive to install. Anyone have find any good 239mm disk that will be able to do the job? Or is changing the hub for the GTI 256mm the only option to get some better brakes? Thanks for the help.

Hello everyone, My name is Jerrick and I own the company MeisterR. Most of you will have never heard of me because most of the application I have are for Japanese Cars (But I do have European Models in Development). MeisterR deals with high performance coilovers suspension, you can see my website at http://www.meisterR.com I am here because my girlfriend ask me to do some work on her Lupo 1.4 se, because my girlfriend (scary enough) had ask me to do some modification on her car. She just change job and now drive on this very bendy country road everyday. The standard suspension on the Lupo just have too much body roll, and she is also warping her brake disks quite quickly. So I am here looking for informations that can help. Coilovers should be fine , but it is the brakes that I have trouble finding info about. Like wise, if anyone have any technical questions, please feel free to ask me and I will do the best I can to help answer them. Thanks in advance for the help.
