Old brakes sold to @M4T VW and picked up these Mk7 GTI Performance Pack brakes for cheap.

You got any pics of your Gladen 3-way install?

Just flicked through the thread and couldn't see any.

Bugger :(

Did you go for the 8"/4"/tweeter set? How do they sound running off the head unit?

I have no idea, it's the Mk5 custom setup. With woofer, mid and tweeter with crossovers. It sounds great through the RNS head unit. Way better than the standard speakers.

The new brakes will look awesome with the rest of the car. You can also think in the future of fitting the R32/S3 rear brakes to balance the braking power. Ordering TRW new parts from ebay or online stores isn't that expensive. :smiley:

I did have a full setup of VWR 6pot fronts and S3 rears. All refurbished by BCR with 2 piece discs. But sold it all to @M4T VW

That's true, forgot about those. It would have been an awesome setup, at the same level of the rest of the car. The GTI Performance brakes will be good for fast road driving. :smiley:

Didnt you have r32 brakes before. I remember cos you wanted ridiculous money for them.
They're the same as the pp brakes so wondering why you've downgraded from 6 pots lol.

Can never have too much brake.

Hi pal. I may be interested in your seats. As a new member I don't seem to be able to post in the for sale section so apologies for posting here. Are they still available and would they fit straight into mk5 gti? Thanks

Been looking at getting these seats myself, how do you find them? And how come you decided to downgrade the brakes?
