  • GTI 337 Brake Rotor Size

    Well I may happen to know a thing or two about 337s, front brakes are 312mm and rears are 256mm and the calipers are different then a standard GTI I believe. The rumor is that the setup is closer to an Audi TT brakes then a GTI or Jetta.

    PS Peter the tint looks ok, but not going to happen on my car

      Hmmm. I am interested in getting those brakes for my car sometime this summer. However, if it costs an arm and a leg, I mind as well just upgrade to these brakes instead...

      P.S. you know you like the tint! [HAHA]



      If you have a proper master cylinder and components to push those 6 or more pistons caliper then you can utilize 100% of it. On a stock setup, the common figures are around 30%.

      Not to be felt sad if of not able to afford the big guy’s toy. A good set of Race compound brake pads and heat treated rotors will get you a same result or better than the big guy’s toy. Remember that his evil look setup utilized only around 30%.
