your building a monster!!
your r32 rear brakes?
can i ask where you got them from?
the standard brakes on the mk5 gti arent exactly confidence inspiring!!

they're 340mm TTS discs and they don't warp like the 370mm TTRS discs do  :happy2:

Where did you get the calipers? They're like rocking horse s**t at the minute.

Yeah I keep having a look myself. The guy that used to have loads of refurbished sets for £350 is back on there, but only offering a refurb service rather than the actual calipers. Think they've dried up!
