Your option is to use the R32 setup (heavy) or fit the NQSBBK with BBS VZ (from the A3 but with the same design of the Pescaras). You can look at @MC71 old Ed. 30 build thread. He had that setup. :wink:

What about Leon Cupra R Brembos and discs? Is that a good option?

yeah r32 option is the only OEM setup/upgrade.
I guess you could change to braided lines,fluid,decent pads and disks for a better setup
