    Assuming your Bora does have the 312mm prices as follows:
    Front Std $100 each
    Front Slotted $275 for the pair
    Rear Std $69 each
    Rear Slotted $205 for the pair

    Pads, just for a street car I'd recommend QFM HPX, which are a Bendix Ultimate equivalent performance wise, but very low dust and rotor wear. Front set is $99 including wear sensor, rear set is $79.

    Both pads and rotors on the shelf.

    Sick of paying too much for performance brake pads? Want high performance with low rotor wear?

      The irony of that is that that's actually the last decent performance compound Bendix made... I used to run them on a rally car of mine and they were great. Bendix's current line up of Ultimates and SRT are both fairly lackluster in performance, and overpriced compared to the rest of the market. Bendix's bread and butter is the GCT, and even from the mouth of one of their own chemists who I know, they don't really care about anything else...

      I'm not anti-Bendix, and indeed stock quite a bit of the GCT for a local SAAB specialist, but for the money there's far better pads out there.

        What you want to look for is parts to suit the Audi TT Mk1 Quattro 225HP:

        Audi TT MKI Quattro 225HP > Braking > OEM

        The parts there will suit the Bora V6 4Motion.
        so anything in the braking section for the mk1 tt will fit the Aus 4mo Bora? Sure, if you go too big with the rotors and calipers you will need bigger rims and other mods (rolled guards, etc) but is everything on that ECS menu all good for a 4mo?
