EK3 front brakes same as EK4?...

[riot68]

Looking for some new discs and pads for my ek3 and wanted to get something decent, looking at sites the places that sell the better stuff only list parts for the ek4 upwards and not the lowly ek3, are the fronts the same so I can just get some ek4 stuff? thanks...

i thought like the ek4 there are 2 types of discs

262mm 21 mm and min thickness 19mm
259mm 23 mm and min thickness 21 mm

So the EK3 and EK4 fronts should be the same on the same age car?...

Yep they are the same

The only difference is the diameter of the piston in the caliper. Which shouldn't make a huge difference

cool, thanks. looks like there are all 262mm...

Yeah ek3 and ek4 brakes are the same.
Two of my mates have ek3's and are the same as my brakes on my em1.
