    You seriously have to upgrade to MK3 2 litre brakes (disks and calipers). So much better than the standard MK2 front disks.

    Did you do the panelbeating?

    Those mk2 discs do look pretty bloody small!

    I'll have to ask your advise on what's a good brake upgrade.
    Mk3 sounds like an easy
    Yeah, had to do a bit of patching up.
    Still working on the panel damage, trying to massage out where the kangaroo head butted the car. Basically right where the antennae used to be.

    I'm running just the bigger MK3 brakes and it stops as well as a modern car. Not sure that I need any further upgrades.

    G60 (280mm) are pretty good , but you need 15" wheels
