Yeah bored now, going scrap yard tomorrow.

They are some interesting things on the 6 forum about corner weight.
Lighter wheels is a good start though.
Ive not found that yet. As ever I was just gonna make my own way through it.
IIRC the Brembos are just lighter than the STD GTi6 calipers. I know the discs are heavier but Im tempted to see If i can get some alloy bells and rotors made up, this would probably eliminate the squealing issue too. Thing is discs are rotating weight as well as unsprung weight whereas calipers are just un sprung weight so Id rather have heavy calipers and light discs than vice versa.
