Shaun, I do like the look of the RS4 brakes just not sure if these are suited to my needs  :confused:

for day to day proper OEM type use i would get AP 4 pots, for the bling effect i would get the RS4's

GTIjames:
what is your thoughts on just changing the pads, discs and break lines  :ashamed: i would love some big breaks but cost is an issue so how effective would this route be?

i personally would go for the R32 set up from the GB on here over just pad/ disc upgrade  :happy2:

SteveP:
^^^ My current thinking is either the R32 setup with some better pads or a set of 4 pot AP's, I don't see enough benefit from just upgrading the pads and disc's on the standard setup  :happy2:
