How much is cheap, you are very lucky. Yes they fit. Yes they are brembo, no they are not the ones fitted to the R32.

I think it is a direct fit, if not then you may need some 6mm calliper spacers. You will need a 323, I think, disc and some braided lines.

it's worth pointing out they won't go onto the 280mm setup. Only the 288mm and 312mm setups can take the carriers.

Otherwise you'll need to change the hubs too.
