Ok a little update......
I have purchased a full set of r32 brakes and I have two piece front and rear disks for these...
I have a short shifter,aux belt and poly bushes going on the car on wednesday....
Going to paint my r32's black and then fit them...
The r32's also came with goodridge brake lines too so should be an amazing set up....

Karl, are you putting the 330mm's on the front off the R32? You obviously have the Mk4 R32 brake setup as the Mk5's are 5x112????

Yeah I have the mk4 golf r32 mate there 334mm disks aint they.....
You know Porsche Cayenne Calipers fit those disks????
If i were you, I'd go for uprated disks and pads all round. The R32 brakes a bit suspicious.
My 312's on the Ibiza had much power braking power and bite than these do!!!! I intend to upgrade this year. strugers1

Ok a little update, after driving my car with the front bushes done,its amazing, it drives solid and feels like a brand new car.....
All knocks havegone away and I need to lower my car at the front as the new unbroken bushes have raised the front up a tad as the old bushes were,let's say FUBAR!!!
Short shifter is taking some getting used to but makes the car feel more sports so I'm happy with that...
Saturday I'm doing a full golfr32 brake set up and braided hoses and full fluid change to 5.1 over the standard dot4.....

Maz it aint low low atm its just a bit higher than it was... It'll only go back down about 5mm its just lost that stance look..... But I'm going to leave it a few days to let th bushes settle in....
....
I noticed that with mine too, but thought it was just because it had been on the ramps. Not sure if it's worth lowering the little extra again though. Function over form and all that.
