Brake pads OEM Nissan or OEM Audi

I managed to get my hand on a set of MK1 Audi TT front and rear brakes for a steal, also round the corner to my work which was even better. This takes my front brakes from 288mm up to 312mm and takes my rear brakes from 232mm solid discs to 256mm vented discs.

I had my S3 in last Friday and the dealership managed to fix my tick/click. I took a video of the noise before taking it in for service but it didn't turn out as well as nikhsub1's; however, the noise was almost identical to nikhsub1's but mine only happened when turning to the right. I would hazard a guess that it may be the same issue some are experiencing with the R. I didn't get the chance to talk to the technician directly but the service writer described the issue as a loose pin or tab on the brakes that was making contact with the rotor.

I saw a review of the GTI with the PP and the reviewer said the brakes on the PP are the same brakes used on the Audi S3.

They replaced everything brakewise, pads/discs/calipers/.. and everything on charge of Audi ofc.

I've done lots of jobs that don't involve getting inside the engine, such as replacing brake rotors/pads, alternators, starters, shocks, accessory/alternator belts, etc.

If this is going to take off you need to make sure it will work for those with upgraded brakes, specifically the Audi 8 pot and 362mm ap discs setup.

Since starting my drive from NY to NJ daily, ALL my previous cars, Audi Q5 and Toyota Sienna, will start "brake and shake" or was it "shake and brake".. at about a year in at around 10k-15k miles. I am guilty of heavy braking so with it comes excess wear.

I found a nominal improvement in braking power and feel with the 12.3". But as NOVAdub stated, the biggest impact was on repeatability.

The stock breaks on these cars were only just good enough when new, after years of wear and tear the breaks are awful. One slightly aggressive stop and that's it your breaks are done for the rest of the day.

If you want an honest oppinion, do not run these brakes, just get yourself a corrado set up w/ good pads and you will be more than happy.
