I have stage 2 and I will be fitting better brakes, having had M cars with AP brake conversion I wouldn't be without big stoppers in a high performance car

Yeah the standard stoppers on my e46 M3 Individual weren't great... Hmmm I've not liked the GTi brakes since having the car compared to the brakes on my old Mk5 R32, why VW didn't give the Ed30 the R32 brakes as standard I'll never know...

if you have a manual stay stg 1 until you get a uprated clutch and diff in at same time.

then you can add the power mods gradually - i did not heed this advice as parts for stg 2+ came up - clutch lasted less than 2 weeks
Diamond Black Pearl Edition 30, still going strong but now back to Stg 1

My Stage 2+ ED30 stops well on R32 brakes. Sure, it COULD be better, but its ok.
