Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    DBA and Zimmerman are both respected after market producers, so you probably won't notice much difference in performance unless you are doing very serious track work.

    When talking calipers, brake pads and rotors the law of diminishing returns hits pretty quickly. You'll find that tyres will make the biggest difference to stopping distance.

      I recently had ATE ceramic brake pads fitted to the front and rear, and as the front discs were also found to be wearing down, I decided to replace the stock rotors with Brembo drilled rotors at the same time. The ATE pads were a bit over $420 + labor, and the Brembo front discs were $630 + labor.

      Very happy with the combination, after about 3-4 months of driving now; and loving that there is next to no dust on the Rosarios, using the ceramic pads!

      Cheers,
      Matt.
