Here's my 03 Jetta TDI. I used 986 generation non-S Porsche Boxster Brembo 4 pot calipers front and rear with OEM Brembo pads and hardware. I went with these over the 17Z/18Z big 6 pots so I wouldn't have to install a different master cylinder as the factory one doesn't move enough fluid to actuate those big brakes effectively.

I have them on our vdub touareg and have had to rebuild them twice due to pistons seizing.
-W221 Brembo calipers/rotors up front
Package arrived. Excellent packaging job! Truly a pleasurable transaction. Thank you again.
I have 2006 porsche cayenne turbo calipers on my r32 skyline. It's a simple bracket that allows you to use 370z track rotors. The calipers are 6 piston brembo units. They were 100 CAD each at a specialty wreckers.
I'm running the '14 STI front/rear Brembo calipers with DBA slotted rotors and EBC Yellow pads with steel braided lines. And Motul 5.1 fluid. I can pretty much out brake everyone in to the turns at the track or touge.
Also have Porsche 997 GT3 brake cooling ducts installed (yes they fit). I have zero heat/fading issues. The brakes can do hot laps for a full 20mins track session with no performance lost.
Z33 Track Pack 324x30 front rotors + CTS-V 4pot Brembos and adapters. Z33 Track Pack 322x22 rear rotors + Z33 2pot Brembos modified to fit S13 knuckles.
I had a friend with those 11” rears on his mk3. Nice upgrade when paired with his 312 Brembo boxsters.
I've been running the brembos with ss lines, wildwood MC, stoptech rotors, hawk pads and dot 4 for years. And I run hard. 0 issues.
Jeez I paid $350 for my brembos to be rebuilt, plus an extra 50 to have the scratches filed out that I made trying to get the pistons out myself :x
