Hey guys n gurls. What's the chances of someone on here having a list or instructions of what's needed to put the evo big brakes on this car ???? Any ideas on better braking would be helpful ??? Thanks. Mike.

I have got them on my T4... Should be an almost bolt on bolt off? you may need slightly longer bolts but depends on which model T4? great brakes...

What brake setup are you after? Evo 1-3 twin pots with 276mm discs, VR4 twin pots with 294mm discs or Brembo 4 pots?

Hey. Probaly evo twin pots would be the best. What's best for track day. As standards would warp in one lap.

I would opt for the Legnum Vr4 setup due to the bigger discs, will also help dissipate the heat. The Evo 3 discs are slightly smaller at 276mm.

These callipers bolt on the same as the Evo ones.

Then get 294mm discs, what ever your budget:

Re-drill them to 4x114 & bolt it all on.
