Just standard set up on the rear, i actually had a set of r32 rears to put on but i didnt really feel the car needed them , i think the braking seems pretty balanced so im just going to leave them as is. Ive still not tracked the car yet as i need to get myself new disks as im currently running two nearsides which are both running at noticably differant temperatures (due to one not rotating in the correct direction, so not cooling effectivly) so didnt want to risk it on the track until im all correct, maybe a track session will highlight a need for the r32/s3 rears but so far im really impressed. Still my fav mod !

Im not sure what discs im going to get, there is a superlight weight disc, a heavy disc (for heat disaption) and the mid weight disc.

Im really fancying the lightweight, but my head says Mid  :confused:

I wouldn't worry about one disc runnig the wrong way. audi as stock delivers only disc for one direction, even on their 395mm disc, they are directional but you get 2 left/right, can't remember which direction they are but they are the same direction  :confused:

Indeed but the Audi discs are pillar cast and not directionally vaned, I had a brain fart and supplied 2 of the same side so It'll do for now but between us were going to get some brand new ones - the AP Pro 5000 DISC the lightweight one that Bry refers to is inside of 4kg  :laugh: :drool:

gobbleplease:
what do you recommend dave the lightweights or medium weight ?

whats disc durability / life like on the lightweights and will they be heat soaked a fair bit quicker than the medium weights ?

Ill ge them of ya at some point mate ill need to save up first, ive spent a bit much on the car of late.
