Hi all, I've got a 1.0mpi lupo on a w-plate. Not looked yet but I'm told brake carrier is part of the front hub?

Need to change the wishbones and front brakes discs need doing to.

Got a pair of g60 discs and mk1 golf hubs knocking about.

With the appropriate carriers the discs and calipers will fit the mk1 golf hubs, but will the hubs fit my lupo?

The point is a set of pads is a tenner, and the parts are there with no other use at present.

So don't wanna have to buy more parts when I'll still end up with shocking brakes.

Got a huge sound system in car which ways in region of 300kgs, so stopping is an issue.

Plus my 1.8t will find it's self under the lupo bonnet in due course.

280mm brakes and g60 calipers etc will need 15 inch wheels , gti brakes i think you can get away with 14's
