      got gt2 6 pot for the little extra cost. saves doing it again
      Yeah, are pretty good calipers for 350 to 380 rotors

      Light and strong calipers!

        My concern with the Cayenne 18z is that they are enormous and fairly heavy - 6.5Kg for the caliper, compared to 3.5Kg for the Evo 4 pot.

          It's a constant comment that one across all boards, and yes no denying there is a weight difference but the biggest concern for me would be on rotational mass rather than the caliper itself.

          If you can make it work, get them fitted

            Alex, Godspeed company can make custom bells and rotors for your S2

            Quality is good enough and not too expensive.

            Evo 4 pot calipers with 320x32 2 piece rotors will stop you perfectly with the correct hardware around

                Thanks for the heads up mate
                I'm not in a position to buy any just yet, but I am planning my next move. I need to finish my rear brake upgrade first

                    hehe, no they are OK for now but with another 150hp they will definitely need to be a lot better!
                    I have some Phaeton calipers & discs for the rear - 310 x 22. Need to get round to making up some brackets & sorting out the handbrake cables.
                    Its the next job on my list
