Kenny H

I have a stock '02 A4 Z28 that my goal is to have full bolt-ons and probably a cam relatively soon. The car has 37k miles and the current stock rotors are warped. The car will likely be lowered a bit and ride on Konis so it should handle fairly well but I have no plans to autocross it. I'm looking for decent brakes on a budget. The car will not see more than 3000 miles a year so durability isn't much of a concern. Also it will be garage kept and I keep the car very clean so I'm not too concerned with brake dust. With that said, whats the better deal:

I'm a total brake idiot, I know nothing about brakes. Either of these kits seem very inexpensive and I'm assuming this is all I would need, correct? It would be great if I could get the parts I would need for ~$300. Thoughts??

I bought my brakes from BSI and am happy with what I got. If you look closely those two links you posted are the same brakes if not very similar.

I bought slotted rotors from WS6store for something like $70ea and got some hawks pads and they work great...IMO dont go with cross-drilled, great looks but they will crack.Just my opinion.

WS6Store has Hawk pads on sell. It sounds like BSI has some problems with customer service. Most are happy but a few are not.
