NO :embarassed:

What I do remember is that they were 2.9kg lighter EACH than the stock GTI calipers.

overall there was a saving of 3kg, so calculating back, the discs must be 1.4 kg heavier than stock each. :smiley:

Hello
Mr Teutonic_Tamer is a wise man, i install days back, Kit Calipers ap racing and disc galfer ,and weight is small, but the disc mark galfer is bad, the discs is make spain, low quality, the price is good 1300€ also 1,199.19 libres, and necessary disk spacers, the 1,6 cetimetros,
I drive on the road, not on circuit,for my taste Brembo , it is necessary  in the road.
Excuse for my English.
Thanks.

Are the front and rear ':R32 brakes the same as the S3 and will they be a straight swap??

My mate works for VW and pretty sure he will get me them cheap and fit them.

Apart from the paint, yes - identical.

Spill the beenz then!  I am looking for a full front and rear setup - front calipers, carriers, discs, pads, splash plates & hoses, and same at rear, less the hoses.

I will get in touch with him and see how much he can get them for, bearing in mind he can get my car serviced for £35.

Also whats the crack with the R32 Intercooler is that different from the S3 being a different engine?
