Hi,

I've got a 53reg 2.0 TDi Sport (140ps) with standard sport wheels (and 288mm front brakes). Remapped to ~170hp or so. I've got to replace the front discs and pads, and reading around here it seems pretty much a no-brainer to try for the 312 mm upgrade.

I've had a read around, but admittedly know rather little :p I think I found the parts that I need:

312mm discs (Figure just get the uniparts stuff for discs as doesn't seem to be much difference between brands) -
Part Number
UGCGBD1579
Description
Brake Disc
Fitment 2
312mm disc
Height (mm)
49.9
Thickness (mm)
25
Disc Dia (mm)
312
Spigot Dia (mm)
65
Stud Holes

for the pads, I was thinking Ferrodo DS2500, and I think the pads are these ones:

I can't find out where to get new carriers from though....

Could anyone comment as to whether I got the right parts above (I'm not sure about the pads...) and also does anyone know the part number and where I could get the carriers from (other than ebay - time is tight :( )

Thanks
