Great video, very useful, cheers bud. Great to see you torquing up the wheel bolts at the end. I do mine to 120nm as I do track days. Apparently the spec for the front caliper Allen key bolts are to be torqued up to 108nm 👌👍

Spot on. Yep, torquing wheels is my biggest OCD on a car.. super simple to do yet most just tighten them up until it feels “right” 🤣

Your weight loss is insane bro 👌

Thanks dude! 😊

Fantastic video! How many mm were your disc before replacing and how many km did they go? Mine are at 30.5mm now😬

@xiolage

Just under 31mm, 44,000miles 😊

Have you noticed a ticking noise that increases/decreases (depending on how fast your going) since you have fitted the godspeed front discs? I've also noticed it quietens down/stops the ticking noise when I apply the brakes (in my case) - presumably when the pads are making contact with the disk... I had my discs & pads fitted about 1-2k miles ago roughly, it's still noticeable in my case.

Yeah this is a trait of any drill/slotted disc as the pad goes over the vents. 😁

The part you removed from the caliper isn't an adapter plate its basically a weight Peugeot installed on later models to help in preventing squeel I.E sod all. Get yourself a pressure bleeder. You'll kick yourself you didn't get one sooner.

Great video, those new discs look great. I’ve had my gti for nearly two weeks now and in the same colour as yours and it looks stunning in the sun

My bad if this is a silly question but I was looking at 308 gti's as my next car and was wondering if you could change the brakes on a 270 to brakes that you'll find on a 250 instead? Those brake prices are insane 🤣

I’m sure you can, not sure if it’d be worth the cost instead of just replacing the discs and pads? 🤔

@xiolage Sorry what do you mean, I know aftermarket options are cheaper than what Peugeot will charge but even then wouldn't it still be more cost effective? I'm still tryna learn more about cars especially this one so idk much about how difficult changing the setup would be

Changing the setup would cost a lot more than simply replacing the discs and pads. 🤘🏼

how much does the front discs and pads cost compared to the oem?

Discs and pads from Godspeed and EBC came to around £1,000. I think OEM is just stupid high prices from Peugeot.
