    I had also the rs4/6 8 pot calipers,they are very nice ,but the Audi ceramic setup. It's far more powerful

    IMHO RS4/6 brakes are overkill and far too heavy for our 1970s designed suspension to control. The ride and handling will be badly compromised.
    Depending on your calipers you could get some different rotors, bells and brackets and run something like 330mm x 28mm or 32mm with the APs. Weighs half as much as the RS gear and will still stop like a mother ****er

    I think the colour turned out great, it's a hard colour to capture in a photo but looks really good when actually seeing it in the sun

    I'm planning on using KW's Variant 1, they seem like a good set up. Brakes I havent yet thought about. There are 315mm AP front brakes on there now, I'll look into it a little later on.

    Any suggestions on brakes?

    I had installed on my stock S2 3B - RS2 front brakes and stock rear brakes. It was OK and much better than standard brakes.
    Now I've upgraded to RS6 front brakes and Porsche rear brakes (I got a hell of a deal from a forum member) and I can tell you that the braking now is insane. I recommend them.

    These are the brakes:

    Cool project! I've subscribed.

    Just curious if you considered RS Blau or Nogaro to keep it more OEM in nature with colour?

    Also what are your plans regarding suspension & braking? You're going to have a lot of ponies to reign in soon!!

    Cheers, and keep up the great work!

    Cheers to all the members helping with sending parts all the way out to OZ for me, and a big thanks to Kit for your patience & help with combining multiple items for me! Packaging was superb, it could've floated, rolled & bounced all the way here unscathed if it fell out of the plane Much appreciated.
