Having seen a few cars at GTI International with Porsche brakes fitted I thought it would be a good idea to go down this route as it does make the car look that bit different/special. I also saw a few with the B7/8 RS4 Calipers which are gigantic!
I've heard of the Boxster upgrade but tbh I can't see Boxster ones (light 300bhp car) being all that much better than the A8 disc/ standard caliper uprgade and I want something a bit more substantial than that if I'm honest.
My power aim for my car is around the 300-350 bracket so I want some pretty awesome stoppers on there.
Is the 996 conversion fairly straightforward and can anyone advise what I'd require to do fronts and rears (obviously don't just want to do fronts).
Been also looking at the Movit conversions but they seem to be Uber expensive. If A8 discs on our hubs can be used, is it possible to fit, say, S8 calipers? I imagine if they can stop a big old barge like that, they must be pretty hefty.
Any options considered please?
