Porsche brake upgrade

Post by ParkJi-Sung » Sat Jul 16, 2005 2:43 pm

Looking for a decent brake upgrade and the porsche one seems the most popular one on here. I've done a search but not managed to find a review, can anyone who has had this done post some feedback?

Also who is apply to supply this and at what cost? Or is it a case of scavaging the various parts and doing it yourself.

Are there any issues with the standard S3 alloys fitting over the larger calipers?

Cheers

I had Movit 4 pot brake upgrade on my S3, which is really a Brembo/ Porsche set up, and it fitted fine behind the standard 17" Avus wheel. However, they didn't fit behind the 18" RS4 replicas I then bought, different offset, and I needed 10mm spacers. Not too much hassle just surprised me, what with it being a bigger wheel.
