Just driven down to Cornwall with the wife, 2 kids, 1 Spanial, a boot full and a roof box. The car was loaded so the breaks weren’t brilliant but ok. I have upgraded to V8 brakes. Looking to upgrade further to Brembo 4 or 6 pot calipers but my question is what size discs do I need for the different size calipers, so I know what to look for?
Cheers

It will be dictated by the caliper you choose, which in turn is dictated by the wheel size (rim clearance) There's a recent thread on here somewhere which may be helpful!yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ
Forgot to say I have 20 inch D4 HSE rims on. Just trying to find out if I get 4 pot what size or if I get 6 pot what size as I know they’ll be different.

I am in the process of refurbing a pair of 4 pot Brembos which use 360mm discs. If you go onto Af and look under the RRS section it should tell you what size discs you would need for 6 pot one. Also minimum 19" wheels for 4 pots and 20" wheels for 6 pots.2006 TdV6 HSE.
Thanks Batfink. I’ve been following your thread. I’d love six pot and that’s what I’m looking out for if I can find a set at the right price. But think I may end up with 4 pot as more likely to find the parts in my budget which I’d be just as happy with. Looks like 360 for 4 pot and 380 for 6 pot. Just found a set of 360m on eBay for £59.99.
