Brake Upgrade Suggestions
« on: December 29, 2013, 10:55:22 pm »
Right ladies and gents. Need some suggestions on brake upgrades as I've currently warped my current front discs. My car is the VW Golf Mk6 tdi 2.0 2009 (197bhp and 285lb/ft before you ask why I need it) and is now remapped (finally), and I'm finding myself needing more reassurance when braking as I don't think the current set-up is enough.

Option 1: OEM Disc and Upgraded Pads (Hawks HPS+ maybe....)

Option 2: Upgrade to the 312mm GTI (Problem is mine are the 50mm hubs so therefore I would need to source the 55mm Hubs) but on the other hand i already have the 312 GTI calipers and disc and hoses in my garage.

Option 3: As per Option 2 but will use the 4 pot Porsche caliper.

I would personally either go for Option 1 / Option 3 but any other thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
