I'm thinking im going to get a similar problem, what braided hoses did you use for the st calipers? goodrige rst ones?

Luckily i'm taking mine to a master to get mine done, i'm confident I'll have some good brakes at the end of it

Let us know how you get on


yeh ive got goodridge braided hoses, the pedal feel is now as good as it was befor i did anything.

i have to do a few manovers to get my car out onto the road and this morning i didnt sh!t my self lol so they are alot better, there is a bit of travel but having mk3 esc for a long time now im used to this been in a couple of mates cars tonight to try and gauge my pedal feel and it isnt bad.

i havent done any hard braking yet as im waiting for the brakes to bed in as yo should do.

let me know how you get on with your brakes mate as joo5t said the crap pedal may be a side effect of the st170 set up and i cant remeber what the mk4 brake pedal felt like.

the only thing i havent changed is the brake compensator thingy lol the two cylinders at the back of the engine bay on the left hand side weather that will make a difference i dont know.

it seems that if you have any small problems with your braking system this set up amplifies it.

adam one other thing mate have you got a price for your brakes including fitting? and do u need any spacers?
