Rs4 brake setup
plush-automotive:
Can anyone shed any light on fitting these, do i need any special adapters if i wasnt to buy the direct kit from amd is it, and buy the parts from audi as in the discs and calipers, what else would i need to make these fir or is a bolt on part.
Any help fitting pictures etc would be great.

First off you need to make sure they will fit behind your new rims as the RS4 kit is about the size of a smart car.
You may need some wheel spacers. :smiley:
You will need something like this to stop your car with the sound system and the bags. :laugh:

Ha ha cheers mate yeh i'm cool with putting the spacers on and sorting the stance out after i've read they will clear 18s i just wondered if it was as simple as buying the calipers and discs and bolting them straight on the car or wheather i need custom brackets etc.
need some big stoppers in my life though :laugh: :laugh:
DaveB@Vagbremtechnic:
Maybe consider using the RS6 Discs instead of the RS4 two piece discs, they are about 12mm taller, they are not two piece in the strictest sense but share the semi floating design from the R8. They are lighter than the B7 disc and mean you dont need as big a spacer. You cant buy replacement rotors for the RS4 ones so not much point in going for those in aneconomic sense.
You need roughly a 2mm shim to centralise the caliper on the disc

borrowing the thread I hope it is ok?
Does anyone know where to buy a set of brackets to hold the RS6/brembo 8piston caliper to the car?
Or if someone has a drawing so can get them fabricated?
how many mm shims behind the RS6 disc will be needed exactly?
Appreciate if someone can help me with these questions? :)
