Default AmD Rear Brake upgrade from Tarox

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/64154/tt_rear1.jpg"></center><p>Hi Guys

Tarox do a rear upgrade kit for the TT/S3 using a rear 300x22mm vented and drilled rotor along with a new carrier and a seperate floating hat.

The kit is a true 2 piece design using the original OEM TT/S3 Rear caliper

As it stands, I already have the front upgrade kit from Porsche using the 993TT setup on 322x32mm discs, but want to upgrade the rear mainly for asthectics.

Would there be bias issues with the front 993tt kit and the upgrade rear Tarox kit?

Attached are some photos

Default You may want to look at ECS Tuning

A similar concept using a larger 2 piece rotor with the stock caliper. The ECS rotor looks lighter. I find no imbalance with the slightly larger rotor. The other variables (much more significant, I believe): the caliper clamping force and the size of the pad, remain unchanged with either kit.
