the R/R32.S3 brakes are very heavy though which is a downside but they're pretty easy to get hold of but like snoopy says they're not red

Yes but there red  :smiley:
I remember SEAT testing the brembos on the mk2 and having heat soke issues, were as the S3,R brakes at the time out performed them in most of there tests. Made interesting reading at the time.

Yeah, good point about them already being red mate.

I had S3 brakes on my A3 but as mentioned they're really heavy. I'd probably go with the NQS BBK

Yeah the Posche ones done by that guy (Dave in think) on the MK5 GTI website look superb.
