I've always like the GR2 for a regular street car. Sure, Bilsteins are objectively better, but there's nothing wrong with Excel-Gs, nee GR2.
Pros: nothing wrong

So for those who want to know a mk4 tdi manual starter does fit in a mk4 1.8t manual car! The starter is a bit longer so make sure you have clearance for it. It fit fine in my car but it's a mk2 so not sure if there is clearance issues in a mk4. I had to adjust my boost piping a bit to not hit the longer starter but, that's no big deal. Keep in mind this starter cranks like a mother ****er but, does require a strong battery in some cases more cranking amps. My car doesn't get driven much so the battery wasn't at it's full capacity so I charged it up and she cranked like hell!
Pros: cranks like a mother
Cons: requires strong battery

When it's time to replace my all seasons, I will likely be going with Nokian WRG. I had older generation Conti DWS on my gti and while they were great, the snow traction was only on the first 10k miles of tread. I hear the current Continental DWS 06 are better.
Pros: great all-season tire
Cons: snow traction limited

Nokian WR G3. It is a all-weather tire (all-season with the mountain-snowflake for severe winter conditions). They are available in 225/45r18 It's not going to have the dry road grip of the DWS06 or A/S3+, but will easily outperform them in the winter, that we are suppose to have.
Pros: outperform them in the winter
Cons: less dry road grip

As mentioned above you can replace the soft goods in your caliper with a kit. Another option is to buy a rebuilt caliper. They are not very expensive. I bought Raybestos recently. Given the age of your vehicle that's what I would do.
Pros: not very expensive

Filter is a Mahle, it's the one from VW Parts Place, so I'm daring to assume it's ok
Pros: assuming it's ok

I've been running these plugs for over a year and a half and hate em, I guess when I got them I wanted new fresh plugs for a hot climate but should have taken them out immediately as there was noticeable power loss. I'm looking to go back to stock now as the car really ran much better. This is an unmodded 08 gti.
Cons: noticeable power loss, hate them
