not sure on caliper weight but for the discs/rotors they are :

oem gti - 8.1kg
oem r32 - 12.2kg

just for comparisson my stoptech st40 bbk 328x28 floating rotors weigh in at 4.9kg and the squeezed forged alluminium alloy calipers a mere 3.6kg  :innocent:

GTI Edition 30 - Reflex Silver now gone but not forgotten - Cooper S JCW now.
