Title: R32 brakes
Post by: Stig_gti on June 14, 2014, 10:02:42 am

What discs and pads are people using on there r32 setups.
And also would you recommend braided brake lines or standard ones are fine.
Thanks will

Braided Lines are a definite improvement, I'm using MTEC grooved and dimpled discs and mintex pads and they're pretty good.

As far as I'm aware yes, but it might be best checking with Dave or Alex to be 100% :happy2:
