Suspension, Brakes, Braided Hoses Ect

Featured Replies

Have a lot of bits left over from my GT which i have now scrapped off due to the snow and a big pile of rocks :(

Suspension: Phil J 60/60 kit with adjustable rear shocks which i think go down to 60/80??? (Please check) Already fitted to legs so will be straight swap (no fussing about with front inserts lol) Been on the car for almost six months so has hardly been used. Kit comes complete, with the legs having brand new top mounts when fitted and recent vented 256mm discs. £Offers on these please ... may be able to post

Brakes: VWII Calipers (Painted Red lol) New nipples fitted. Came off a Mk1 Golf GTI. Allows you to fit 256mm vented discs to a standard Polo leg. Improves braking massively I personally think. These are currently attached to the legs although I can split if enough interest. These cost me £69 off eBay and I have used them rarely over the past 4 months. £Offers on these again please ... may be able to post

Brake Hoses: Black Diamond Stainless Steel Braided Hoses. Also help braking massively. Very effective when used with the above calipers. The ends have lost their new look but have been on the car for 4 months and have hardely been used. These cost me £50 brand new just for the hoses. Again I am looking for offers please ... will be able to post

Comments: Overall I think you will benefit from buying the calipers and hoses together as the breaks on my GT were such an improvement from the standard items. The suspension gives a nice ride height and stance and improves handling I would say. By all means get feedback from people who use these parts on their car. Open to offers on all prices. I could work out a deal if the all the parts were bought as one as it saves me from stripping them off the leg and sending to three different buyers. All the parts have been used minimally as the car was used as a second car and for weekends.

Any questions please feel free to ask ... many other bits for sale including engine and loom and other GT bits and bobs

(Pictures are coming soon)

update:

Suspension has now been sold

brakes are on hold

hoses are on hold

still got other parts for sale ... basically stripping a GT

What are the seats like?

tbh mate, not very good, thats why i haven't included them in any of my listings.

drivers seat has a worn bolster and does not tily forward or you cannot adjust the back part although the passenger side is perfect ... the cloth is also slightly faded on the head rests ... rather be honest than lie lol

the brakes are again up for sale guys ... here is an image of what they looked like before they went on the car ... i will post pics up of what they are currently looking like when i get home from uni, basically they have been jet washed down and a bit of paint has come off, they are fully working calipers, carriers, pads and discs. They fit mk1 golf gti, early mk2 golf gti's, scirrocos and mk3 polo legs. not sure on anything else, please check before you buy

are you sure they are 256mm, look like 239mm discs with vwII calipers

they wont fit early mk2s either as they had a different hub spacing. mk1-3 polos, mk1 golfs/cabbys/caddys and mk1/2 scirroccos

sorry for the mistake guys, grungeisdead is correct ... they are infact 239mm discs, got mixed up there ... sorry for the confusion

thank you for spotting that for me :D

no worries holmes, still a very good upgrade for a mk1-3 non G40 polo

how much are you after out of interest?

postage is £15 for 3-7 days or £19.99 for 48hrs ... i am willing to accept postage + £45 and that includes calipers, carriers, pads and discs ... i paid £50 for them when i done the upgrade lol
