audi a3 3.2 quattro brake upgrade

<< < (2/4) > >>

danishmkvgti:
Are we talking front only or also rears?
If fronts only it a no brainer, just dismantle the outer part of the caliper and get it painted, og spares needed.
Regarding the rears it's a specialistjob and then you should get in touch with "brakecaliperrefurb" for the rebuild  :happy2:

Here's a great brake upgrade for your car. Please note I have nothing to do with the seller.

Scottymon:
Grab a set of Cupra ones if you don't want the expensive of painting them... as they are already red. :happy2:

IIRC the only ones I'd bother with over the Cupra, would be the S3 as they are a bit lighter.

Holy sh!t that 6pot setup is SERIOUSLY well priced!

Do you have any info as to why the S3 is lighter?
Looking at them the S3 should be heavier due to the balancing "knobs" on the inside of them, equal in weight maybe but not lighter  :smiley:

Its the front setup that I am talking about and as far as I am aware the S3/R32/GOLF R/CUPRA/A3 3.2 QUATTRO all have the same calipers. The only difference is the colour and the retaining clip? I may be wrong but thats what I have been told.
