Volkswagen Scirocco 3 V-Maxx Big Brake Kit 365 mm 6-piston

The big brake kit Scirocco 3 365 mm is the largest V-Maxx brake kit for the Volkswagen Scirocco III (13): 365 mm two-piece brake discs with 6-piston calipers made of forged aluminium.

The kit is intended for all versions from 90 to 195 kW with Ø55 mm front shock absorbers, a steel steering knuckle with Ø55 mm clamp and original rear discs of at least Ø271 mm. A larger disc gives the caliper more leverage, and because the caliper, bracket and bell are made of aluminium, the kit cools down quickly. As a result, the braking performance stays consistent under repeated hard braking.

V-Maxx Autosport is a Dutch manufacturer; sport brake pads with TÜV approval and vehicle-specific adapters are included, and the kit has a TÜV certificate according to §19.3.

Fitting and delivery

Follow the V-Maxx fitting instructions supplied, including the specified tightening torques. The big brake kit Scirocco 3 365 mm only fits cars with original steering knuckles.

The largest V-Maxx brake kit for the Scirocco III: 365 mm discs, six pistons per caliper and a TÜV certificate for road use.

Why choose this big brake kit Scirocco 3 365 mm?

Choose the big brake kit Scirocco 3 365 mm if you want the maximum disc diameter and the car runs on wheels of at least 19 inch. Compared with the 355 mm kit (20 VW355 10), the calipers are the same, but the larger disc gives more leverage. The aluminium parts dissipate heat quickly, so at a track day you brake consistently for longer before fade sets in. With TÜV §19.3, the Scirocco remains suitable for public roads.

Frequently asked questions

Both kits have 6-piston calipers and apply to the same Scirocco III versions. The 355 mm kit (20 VW355 10) fits from 18 inch wheels; the big brake kit Scirocco 3 365 mm (20 VW365 10) has a larger disc and requires at least 19 inch.

Which requirements apply to the steering knuckle?

The big brake kit Scirocco 3 365 mm is only for cars with a steel steering knuckle and a Ø55 mm shock absorber clamp. In addition, the car must have original brake discs of at least Ø271 mm at the rear.

Can I use this kit on public roads?

Yes. The kit has a TÜV certificate according to §19.3, also with an officially approved power upgrade. The kW limits in the application list refer to the original output.

Does V-Maxx also offer a kit for the rear axle?

No, V-Maxx only supplies kits for the front axle, because about 90% of the braking power is delivered there.
