I can’t find anything online but it looks like the S3 has single piston calipers at the front end is that correct?
 
Thanks Rob, as sad as it sounds that puts me right off switching the TTS for one. Looks like it’s back to the drawing board

I know what you mean on paper it’s lacking but they work quite well.

Plenty of upgrades out now and adaptor brackets to fit anything from Porsche 4 pots to R8 8 pots.

Rob were can i purchase the adapters for the rear calipers so that I can put the same discs on the rears to my fronts on my RS3?
 
Your right Rob, I looked about all last night trying to convince myself that an M2 would work with kids :wtf: but I keep coming back to the S3 being the right car bang for buck and for being 5 door I think it still looks spot on

It's a cracking overall package has to be on your shortlist.

Mine was running stage 2 400+bhp on standard calipers btw - managed absolutely fine with just a pad and disc upgrade.

Mine was also fine at Stage 2 and 400 bhp on a track day running totally standard brakes. They do work well considering.

I have upgraded my front discs to clubsports for now but may look at a BBK next year depending on how many track days I plan to do.
