That's wierd, Pete.

I have a Phase2 1.8 and the standard discs were 281mm.

I was advised that I would need to get 276-277mm discs to fit, which would be 4-5mm smaller than stock ones.

Is yours a Phase1? Maybe that is the reason.

Is it possible that the phase 1 T4's had 276mm discs, where the lower powered model p1's had slightly smaller versions?

With the discs to suit yes, they bolt straight on with no carriers, brackets or adapters required.
