Hello all,
I am currently running an Ibiza FR TDI with stage 1 upgrades, as well as running the Audi 312mm front brake setup. I am thinking about fitting the Skoda Octavia VRS rear brake setup with the 256mm vented disc / bigger caliper setup.
Before I decide whether to upgrade or not, I was after some reviews from other forum members who have already made the change, as to just how much a difference they think it makes to the cars braking performance, and to any handling changes under heavy braking.
My reason for wanting the brake upgrade is that I look to do 4 - 5 trackdays a year, as opposed to just fast road use.
My current setup is EBC yellowstuff front and rear pads with Motul RBF600 fluid, and extra venting on the front brakes. I know alot of people on this forum and others are critical of the EBC pads, but having done 3 trackdays this year as well as about 4000 miles on the road, I have found them to be capable of strong and consistant stops when at temperature.
Any positive / negative (or no different) feed back on the rear upgrades welcome!
