which kit is the best to buy?..

i mean there loads of different kinds..

normal 2.0 16v one's re-drilled? = unsure

lmf 4 stud v6 upgrade? = heading that way

or rimstyle do a 4 pot hi-spec upgrade but surely them are just for the total performance nut??

most likely goon end up with a turbo lump

16v ones are ok, but if you plan for a turbo, they wont be good enough

V6 ones are brilliant, they really are good for the money

4 pots are a bit overkill, might be worth it for the looks, or if you have money to burn

you forgot, 'or if you use it properly.'

also, whatever you get, budget for a set of braided hoses as well.

rear discs are pointless from a performance point of view.
