Interestingly enough the S4 with the 60/43mm pistons works out at a middlingish 6% dead with the 25.6mm master cylinder.

....Was at Brands Hatch today and one of the VW Cup teams was running S4 brakes but ALL the teams I saw were running oem brakes on the rears of the Mk5 GTI.

Without locking horns again Robin and covering old ground, track cars no problem, no road ride height, uber stiff suspension.
The adverse dive can be dialed out when there are no other compromises to make
The S4 brakes just look like R32/S3 brakes from the front, you'd need to strip them and measure the piston to be sure...
Unless you asked of course in which case I'll stfu! :signLOL:

....No locking of horns - Just discussion. We don't have to agree about everything.
At least you've now written it in plain English I can understand :grin: (re track cars) - The highly detailed tech stuff goes over my head.
No I didn't ask about if they were S4 brakes - I would have felt a bit stupid as they had S4 written on them.
