I'm running a vagbremtechnic AP racing kit. 390mm j hook AP discs, AP radical 6 pot calipers, ds2500 pads and braided lines up front. On the rear I've got j hooked discs, ds2500 pads, braided lines and standard calipers. They perform unbelievably well and I've never overheated or got them to fade even at oulton park with some fairly long heavy sessions

I might try the q5 brembo 4 pots with giro disc s4 upgrade much cheaper than the big kits,got to be a big improvement than the original,more power 4 pot vs 1 pot,much lighter ,better cooling and half the price of the big kits.Also they fit under the stock wheels,which give the wheel boys more scope .

I would look at getting some air into the wheel wells to cool the brakes what ever you fit. RS cars have NACA ducts in the undertray .
There is little airflow into the wheels wells on the S4.

Good call ☺

Struggling here. Just want to find some and buy them with having to worry about brackets.

RS 8 pots some decent discs and pads and would like them in Black and in new con.

This looks to be a very good setup.As you have probably found there are several models that use the caliper from the RS but the caliper brackets are silly money. Standard discs aren't cheap and aren't directional so not the best for cooling.
These brakes would need 19 inch wheels but would be an upgrade from the RS brakes.

That's the kit I have. If your after some serious stopping power, look no further. The kit is unreal and never faded once on a full day flying round oulton park
