Seal kit part number is 447 698 471. You will need two kits to do a pair of calipers. They retail at £19.67 + VAT each but there are on a good code so give your local parts guy some stick and see what he'll do them for. I reckon around £15 + VAT each would be about on the money.
Genuine pads are silly money. 895 698 151 B, retail at £75.66 + VAT. Again there is decent discount code on them but you'd probably still be looking at £50 + VAT. As suggested above give GSF a go.

on the corrado i warped a set of discs with green stuff in no time.
i then used turbo groove discs and they were very good.
when the turbo grooves were out i changed to a wilwood superlite 4 pot kit with 310mm discs. they worked good when warm.
i got red stuff on the S2 with the 6 pots. seem pretty good so far.

Search the forum for EBC pads, they've got a most horrible reputation.1995 RS2 on Alcohol (6.8sec 100-200km/h)

a horrible reputation doesn't make them bad. yes they used to be poor but the newer mixes are a lot better. a lot of good products would go by the wayside if they were not given a second chance with new compounds.
agreed DS2500 are great pads but in all honesty they were double the cost of the reds in my 6 pots. i have no issues with stoppping with the red stuff i use. in fact i look for people running in the back of me.
whos to say the former owner didn't mix and match along the way killing the surface of both disc and pad.
if anything they can be a bit aggressive on the discs can ebc. very low dust levels as expected.

Please note...
Ferodo do not do a DS2500 pad for the twin pot g60 caliper as fitted to the 20v cars.
