Default Putting in new brakes and suspension.

I have an 2002 Audi TT and I want to put a new suspension and brake system into it. I’m not sure what to look for and would appreciate some help looking for good brands and also what I have to put in or take out for this to work. Like if I get a bigger and better brake system what needs to come out and be replaced and what can stay in. Please help. Matt

Don't know what you mean by replacing the "brake system". If you want larger brakes, a lot of folks like Brembo Big Brake. If you want new rotors/pads, I've tried several over the years on my TTs and I like EBC the best. I have their slotted sport rotors and red pads. Initial bite is a big improvement over OEM, no fade on the track, no noise, and very low dust. If you track a lot, I'd use their yellow pads. I've also used Zimmerman cross-drilled rotors on my Mk 1s and liked them. If you go with cross-drilled, make sure they were fabricated at the factory and not some aftermarket shop buying solid rotors and drilling them.
