Just out of curiosity - How much does it cost overall to upgrade the brakes to decent ones? Im guessing £200-£300?
To up grade to the breaks I've shown are about 300-350 for the calipers as there radials ( same as porche 996 turbo rear calipers actually) discs are 100 each for genuine brembos and the pads are 100 for decent pads, plus braided lines.
so probably 600 ish quid, you can get a full used set up for 350-400 ish.
Ran evo 8 calipers and focus rs discs (328 mm x28 mm ) on a old rs turbo ( a lot lighter than a 182) and that set me back 300 for every thing and I made the brackets my self.
Having run that ibiza as a road car for a while on the brembos I simply could not go back to not having them. My partner has a fn2 civic type r and I hate driving it as the breaks feel so s**t
