Which brakes are you going for again? I think you changed your mind about 4 times :laugh:

Ah, not with the Golf R! I only ever wanted Porsche Cayenne fronts on it with 350mm single piece discs. I may swap to 2 piece discs at a later stage but for now I want it as a daily so I can't go too mad with expensive parts.

Oh fair enough, I thought I remembered you eying up the VWR calipers for a while and then something else, maybe that was me :laugh:. My mates got basically that same kit on his 470bhp S4, stops it very well :happy2:

Loving those brakes bud :drool:
Would you reckon the caddy rears would complement s3 fronts as I would get them refurbished at the same time as the front?

Cheers fella, visually they're no different but they bring more balance to the brake bias as they have the same piston as the R32/ S3 calipers just on a smaller disc, but because of that they're about 6kg lighter overall than the R32 kit (I've read). Is definitely a nice touch and they really don't cost much.
