Stage 3 Big Brake Kit 355mm 6 Pot / A5 Platform

The Racingline ‘Stage 3’ Big Brake Kit for A5 platform is now available in four colours and two rotor sizes for 18″/19″ wheels.

Boasting a forged monoblock caliper, designed from the ground up using the latest FEA Technology we think it’s easily the most dramatic big brake kit on the market – but more importantly it performs like no other. With incredibly stiff monoblock construction, and the highest burst-pressure test ever recorded by Racingline’s development team, it’s no wonder that record 100kph-0 times are being produced.

The Racingline Stage 3 Forged Monoblock Brake Kit moves braking technology to a level above anything seen before in this market.

The design vision was made possible by an advanced 5-axis CNC manufacturing techniques to give this kit more in common with top-level motorsport components than typical aftermarket parts. The result is a combination of ultimate track performance with lightness, stiffness and beautiful attention to detail.

Each lightweight forged Monoblock caliper is a one-piece construction that starts out from an ultra-strong forged billet. Rather than two halves bolted together, the design takes a complex 5-axis CNC machining procedure to build, usually reserved only for the highest-specification motorsport kits.

The result is a 6-piston caliper that is both stiffer and lighter than any other, combined with exceptional cooling characteristics and stunning detailing.

Despite the size of these calipers, they weigh in significantly under the mass of the factory ones. The caliper, pads and bracket assembly together weigh 5.3kg (11.7lb) vs 8.6kg (18.9lb) for the factory Golf 7R / S3 equivalent.

The kit includes 355mm fully-floating ‘triple-grove’ two-piece discs giving vastly greater heat capacity, so reducing the effect of fade.
