very nice! be sure to get some pictures of before and after shots!! (the rotors)

edit:

Just thought of a question regarding brakes...for those who purchased after market kits. did you buy discs for all 4 side of the wheel? or just the front and move the fronts to the back ? (is that do able?)

[PoloGTi]

Ok i brought a set of Audi S3 front rotors X2 and calipers X2. The fronts are not able to go on the rear due to the hand brake cable and diferent mounting. From what i understand is that the front does most of the heave braking and rears are just there to help (could be wrong tho).

I once had ebc greenstuffs and dba rotors on the astra. Apart from the racket they made (even with that red goo that supposedly quitens them), they were fantastic. Car would stop on a dime. Beware in the cold though... you really need to warm them up to bite.

[PoloGTi]

Hey guys got the rotors on today there was a stuff up with thge price so got them at cost got to love that
DS2500 pads should be here next week ill do the lines then to. Feeling at the mo not good at all need to bed in gets better every time i hit the pedel tho.

Ok so 100k,s later and so much better the bite of the pad when cold is awsome still running textar pads and no braided lines. So with better pads new fuild and new lines it should be inasin cant wait to get to the track to see how they go.
