    Awesome mate. Once up to temp the bite is incredible. Coming up to a set of lights I put the brakes on forgetting that the greens were in there, and it threw both me and the girlfriend forward in our seats. There's no apparent brake fade either, the pedal feel is really good. All this only after about 60km of driving.

    Also, not a sound has come from them, no sign of squeal. Maybe it's because I took the car to an industrial street and bedded them in properly. Up to 60km/h and then firm on the brakes. I did that about ten times up and down the street.

    Still is mate. Looking at upgrading the rear pads to match my rear red stuffs, possibly then the rotor/caliper to TT spec stuff to even out the hydraulic-to-mechanical ratios.

    If not that, then a change of brake master cylinder.

    It pulls up bloody hard, but the rear is still very light and not as 'sure-footed' as it was when standard. Not sure if i like it or not.

    The anarchist in me kinda likes the idea of a swastika in place of the VW symbol on the back and the front……..

    Got Custom Code'd on the weekend, thanks to Gav. Totally different car now, don't realise how fast you are going until you look at the speedo.

    Can't do enough driving at the moment. Hopefully the rain will go away so i can get better traction.
