Picked up a set of S3 brakes for the GLI today. They’re 340mm (13.4"). At $700 i got 80% of a BBK’s potential power for half the cost! Best part is the set has like 5k miles on it! Will post pics when installed!

Nice reference! I need to listen to that again.

I love the thought of using parts from a more upscale car on something else, specifically brakes. R32/Z32 4 pots on a 240sx springs to mind.

yep VW’s are the same! GTI brakes to upgrade regular jettas and golfs, and then basically any Golf R/Audi S/RS kit, or even porsche kits can be used for bigger stopping power! The S3 kit is one of the smaller ones when it comes to rotor size, but offers a large caliper, so is an awesome OEM+ upgrade
