Default STaSIS 13" or ECS 13" Brake Kit

Oh great tune/mod gurus - seeking your advice, ideas and experience.

What's the difference between STaSIS/Alcon 13" and ECS 13" (stage 2v2) brake kits?

ECS is ~$1000 less, something must be different, yeah?

STaSIS/Alcon:

ECS:

What's best for a Stage 1+ B6 1.8T (tracked 2-3 times/year), daily driver?

Thanks!

Default IIRC, the alcons use a monobloc caliper and advance rotor cooling designs...

but for the type of duty your car will see im sure the ECS kit will be more than fine. cheers! Mike

Default Just get stoptech. The ECS StageII V2 kit is crap IMO.

Default Thanks!

Scary photo on ECS - ouch.

Looks like I could do fronts with Stoptech and rear pads/SS lines/fluids for the same price as STaSIS/Alcon.

Thanks for the info!!!
