The guys I know are a distributor & manufacture in China who do OEM AP Racing, Brembo & a bunch of other brands too. They offered me the OEM Brembo or the copy version which is same quality & materials. The OEM is tripple the price, so I opted for the copy which cost me USD1326 (approx $1860) including shipping to Sydney. This included the caliper, Caliper mounting bracket, brake hoses, brake pad holders & pins. I bought DBA wave rotors ($1k) & Hawke pads ($470) locally. My mate & I fitted them ourselves back in December including doing lowering springs at the same time. Our Tigs have a brake pad with a wear sensor on the front driver side only. where as the RSQ3 has it on both sides. All I had to do was cut the clip off the original Tig's brake pad & replace it with the one on the Hawke brake pad.

Feel free to PM me if anyone interested in getting the calipers & I can put you in touch & explain in further detail.

Copy version Brembos from China....Hmmm. It very rare that something is triple the price and uses the same quality and materials as the cheaper version...

Black Wolfsburg with panoroof arrived late Feb 2019. Yes, it’s a wicked colour & well worth the wait.....

Off topic but why doesn’t tapatalk have a “Like” button instead of having to reply to a post???

Because it's only good for attaching pictures.

Gave the Wolfy a wash today, the Opticoat has definitely made it easier to keep it clean, well worth the cost imo.

Almost 5,000km on the clock and still loving it

Finally, since taking delivery of the Wolfsburg in Feb, I have been plotting out a series of mods for the car which have now all been executed.

> Mk 7.5 R exhaust
> Wheel arch colour matched
> Front grill dechrome wrapped
> Paint protection Pomy 880xx
> gTechniq interior protection
> Full XP tint
> Debadge rear
> R AID
> Metal paddle shifters (full replacement, not bolt on)

I personally think this is how the R Line should have rolled out of factory. I am contented (for now).

Finally, I am so amazed at how helpful and open this forum is. The wealth of knowledge here is mad. Help has come from forum posts, DMs, whatsapp and meets. Big shoutout goes to Orpheus2k, daz32, IsDon and many others who have helped get the car to where it is today. Hope the wife likes it. It’s hers after all
