Stopping force wise yes, I reckon they are actually better than 406 brembos on xantia discs.
Like I think 10-15m shorter stopping distance from 100mph and also the feel is better with them.
I think the issue for most people is the weight. Like a HDi 266mm caliper, pads and disc is about 9.5kg, the 302mm caliper, pads and disc is about 16kg. I don't have a weight for the GTi6 suff but it's nearer the 266 end of the scale.
I've got itchy feet to get stuff gone and get a FMIC for the scooby while they are still on special offer so for you I could make it £100 posted ONO.
Oh and both nipples are free but one is more of a mole grip job and will need replaced.
