Does it worth to upgrade the brakes on a 2.5L TDI (ATE-FN3 with Ø 308 mm disc), did anyone do something like this? I saw that T4 using the same system can be upgraded with aftermarket kits with good results.
It's not clear to me if a V6/V8 larger disc Ø 330 mm (machined to accomodate the 120 mm hub layout) and OEM Brembo caliper (1LC or1LE) be a solution/direct fit?
Is the caliper support on the wheel bearing housing the same for 2.5/V6/V8?
There was a similar question in 2007 (http://www.clubtouareg.com/forums/f64/r5-upgrade-brake-discs-15283.html), but the thread died at the second post, didn't want to revive it... and the rest i found were about the Brembo system
