Jarno,

Let's set the record straight. I owe you the picture! You have helped a lot. I had no clue where to start from, and you have given me a full plan on where to go from here. I will post before and after pics of the car. I will shoot some pictures of the engine tomorrow and post them up.

Thank you for your replied. I checked the Brembo GT, but unfortunately they dont make kit for the Polo. I will be using the car for a track competition which is 7 continuous laps on part of a f1 circuit that is very demanding on brakes. In other words, I need something that can take a lot of abuse ...
