DaveB@Vagbremtechnic:
Thats an option, although not directly.
Just bought a job lot of used calipers and in that job lot is a load of CP7040's which are the ones in the scirroco kit from AP, the only problem is that even though the discs are two piece they weigh about 10kgs a corner.
In terms of outright performance the 4 pot 330mm setup ticks the most performance boxes but I wouldn't have a clue on track so wasted on me really
Then theres the R8 rear kits......R8 fronts have gone to a CW scirroco owner funnily enough!
I also have some Ford GT calipers that were going to go onto a 345mm R32 disc, had the carriers made but stumbled across some 355x32 Alcon rotors which are simply top quality and would work really well with the Ferrari F40 pad.
Also had a B5 RS4 setup but sold it begrudgingly to somebody on here so they could join the TC brake club......
And finally simply a 345mm Scirroco R / Golf R setup which is basically a S3 setup with different pad springs (which I've bought)
Nathan over on ASN has the R8 Rears on the front and S3 rears on his A3 and the pedal is simply perfect and they fit under the 19's without spacers.
So I'll probably copy Nathans setup - it drives real nice.

VC - you met my wife? She puts up with so much brake crap all over the house and anybody who's been over to mine would agree she puts up with a lot ! Shes a canny one though she waited for the place to have a caliper on every flat surface and then announced that she needed a "hobby" as well........so Im now paying for a hay eating machine that craps a lot.... :ashamed:
TC - Nice pic, you've sat up the front there'd be nowhere to put it!! I could walk through security though and they'd miss the gun and strip search me for my nail clippers :confused:
