Search NQSBBK (Not Quite So Big Brake Kit). Arranged by Dave B (brake guru) on here, it seems to be the kit to get at the min (look, performance, brand kudos, price). Others have went for R32 or S3 brakes whick are larger, but also much heavier.

HTH  :happy2:

i went for Brembo stage 1 big brake kit with motul rbf600 brake fluid. needs 10mm spacer to fit under pescaras. they are more than enough stopping power, and dont fade. pricey but worth it.
