Brake discs STOPTECH or POWER STOP

POWER STOP Brake discs

I just got a full set of power stop. They worked out great, only I wish that I would have gotten the coated rotors. The surface rust forming on the uncoated rotors looks bad, but doesn’t affect performance.

Pros: great performance
Cons: surface rust

I got the "stoptech" brand if I remember correctly. They install the exact same as other brands, the difference is higher quality material, and maybe drilled / slotted.

Pros: higher quality material

I used the Power Stop Z36 kit. It has drilled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads. It was about $425 for all 4 shipped directly to my house last year. So far they seem great.

Pros: seem great so far

If you were to go with the Zimmerman rotors (I wouldn't go drilled, only slotted/dimpled/blank) and ATE or Textar pads you can run them until they're dead, pay shipping to/from FCP and they'll send you another set. I personally have slotted StopTech rotors on my MK7R and they've been awesome. Even with 5 track days, multiple winter's and a lot of street miles with track pads installed they're still in great shape.

Pros: long lasting, great shape

Went with Stoptech slotted, EBC reds, Stoptech SS lines, Stoptech STR-600 fluid.

Made a night & day difference on my non PP 15 SE.

Granted, I really push the car often in the mountains. But the change to this refresh was immediately noticeable. Fade takes a much longer time to set in. But it will still set in. There's far better options if you push it a lot.

But it's such a massive improvement over stock. Which would have fade set in almost immediately after a few harsher corners.

Pros: massive improvement, less fade
Cons: fade still occurs
Vehicle: Volkswagen
