Cheers in advance

some s3/r32 would be a bit of upgrade. it depends on how much you prepared to spend. and how big you want to go  :grin:

danc1706:
Yeah that is true, what size are the s3/r32?

As above, all depends on your budget and how big you want to go.

S3/R32 calipers are 345mm discs or your can use Audi TTS Discs which are 340mm with this caliper. The 340mm discs are lighter than the 345mm discs and also prevent any form of lip on the edge of the disc which you get on the 345mm. IMO the TTS disc is the way forward if you're going with the S3/R32 calipers.

There is also the NQSBBK which is another decent upgrade. More info here:

Its a big thread, but well worth your time reading it  :happy2:

Again, there is bigger setups which you can go for. Just depends on how deep your pockets are and how much stopping power you need/want  :wink:

Cheers mate! Yeah running 330bhp in the eddy on standard brakes is shocking!
