GaryM Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 I have never been that impressed with the brakes on our Galaxy. It warps discs, suffers from fade and generally does not give me that nice and secure feel. Now out car was built at the crossover between the old and the new shape and seem to of carried over some of the old stock of parts, brakes included. Listings show our motor should have slightly larger discs and pads but ours has them off the MK1. Is it as simple as swapping the discs, pads and calipers over to the proper MK2 set? I have 16" wheels. Just wondering if a trip to scrapie might be worth it. Any other comments, I'm not keen on a badboy mega caliper kit just want some half decent brakes. Is drilling really worth it?

Bigjeeze Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 I don't know if it is worth it but check your insurance Quote
GaryM Posted February 12, 2006 Author Report Posted February 12, 2006 You are right, there could be an issue there hence just wanting to upgrade to the brakes that this model is supposed to have rather than the ones from the MK1. They are less likley to spot or take issue with them. Has anyone done this? Quote
