The VWR RacingLine Big Brake Conversion gives a real supercar look and feel in the braking department. A much bigger disc and pad area gives greater heat capacity, thus reducing the effect of fade, whilst the stiffer calipers and braided steel brake lines reduce the compliance in the braking system to ensure firm pedal response under all conditions.
We need a front brake kit that can stand up to the extreme demands of circuit racing, yet is affordable and reliable. Surprisingly, none of the established brake companies could offer us what we wanted, so we commissioned our own exclusive development programme with our partners Caparo AP Braking. The VWR Big Brake Kit is the result.
It’s important to understand that this is a kit developed exclusively for the VAG A5 platform (Golf5/6, Jetta, A3, Leon etc). Unlike many brake upgrades which are required to fit across many different marques, a great deal of development work went into ensuring a beautiful, progressive brake pedal feel for the VWG master cylinders and servo hardware. Many aftermarket kits give a very grabby pedal response, making the car very hard to drive smoothly, and brake response very hard to modulate – the VWR kit avoids this problem.
