Default Upgrading brakes...

Anyone got any reccomendations for brake discs and pads, that will fit my mk4? Just getting them for when I get the new engine put in.. Only a 1.6 xr2 on twin 40s, stripped shell... I was thinking something like standard esc rs brakes would do the job?

Yeah RS T brakes should do the job

BTW, I fitted braided brake lines to my old S2 and they made a noticeable difference, so for the sake of Ł40 or whatever they are, it'#s well worth it
