http://www.amdtechnik.com/product.details.cfm?ProductID=1047&VariantID=292&ReferenceID=7313
bit on the pricy side would be interesting to know what audi supply them at and what is needed to fit them other than 18" min rims
-
one of the lads over on audi-sport.net has these on his S3 and really rates them, I like them for the OEM+ look :happy2:
-
they are nice looking brakes, i wonder if mat can get these cheap :laugh:

:happy2: agreed
iv been looking at the 345mm? r32 items or the 312mm for mine as they fit straight on apparently so would be good to compare with the RSs price wise. i think for the 32s your looking at about 500large for calipers, carriers, lines and discs
-
keep you eye on ebay pal, there was a full S3 front set-up on there last week that Joe was tracking, think they went for about 250 quid, these are the same as the R32 items and a massive improvement on the GTi set-up :happy2:

dont see y not but would need a reg number from a car that has them on and then i can get part numbers and then a price :wink:
-
^^sounds like a plan :happy2:
-
Try FT07 LHE :nerd:
-
aww wow...thats brake porn if i ever did see some! im still loving my r32 brakes!

250! i'll definetely be on the look out now you've said that a few sleepless nights ahead... damn you :signLOL:
your running an oil burner aren't you JPC? how long did it take you to shift the 32 stoppers onto yours???
-
erm...about £80 quid! haha!
i got them powdercoated from blue to red and the bodywork shop who did have a time served mech there so they fitted them too! its really easy anyways....like laughably easy as long as you can bleed brakes
-
These are good brakes, shame they are so expensive.
I'm doing some replacments for the Audi guys at the moment. The replacments discs are in the region of £700-1000 a pair!!!! They crack around the holes really very easily to.

Iswed i think you need to explain yourself a bit better. Are you saying that you will be selling replacement discs at 700-1000 quid that crack really easy. :chicken: :confused:
-
HAHAHAH
Yea I bend you over and give a you a pork sword to lol.
Thats was hands not know what brain was thinking. i.e RETARD.
The stock discs crack very easily around the holes and the replacment discs are around 1k from Audi. I am making an alternative for the people who allready have this setup on the S4/RS4.
That makes sense......................................
-
looks like the .:R brakes are cheaper option... by a long way
Not even the thought of some fat RS branded calipers can compete with 80quid for some 32 items although saying that you could get the clip on S3 bit if you went with the r32/cupra/S3 brakes
-
*its official im after some now!* :signLOL:
-
right then i have just priced this kit up and the retail is £1750 ish and i can do them for £1350 and thats for 2 calipers and hoses and 2 drilled discks so a big saving on a massive brake kit :smiley:
-
good stuff matey! sounds like a few people will be snapping your hand off! ;)

they are massive and nice and oem as such so would look the dogs nuts on any DUB
-
i remember seeing some on a mk4 golf and they looked SOOOO good! a bit overkill on that tho
-
i think these will be better than putting on the ecs stage 5 kit ie porsche brakes infact they might be the same calipers maybe
-
no no no...i think there even bigger. the stage 5 is 350mm is i think
i remember thinking the rs4 ones looked bigger than the stage 5 kit
-
They do look the mutts nuts you could almost just put a tyre on them, there that big. :party: :party:

Thats an amazing price!!! the calipers are £600 on their own good work!!!!
-
Will they fit ok behind 18" rims though? :confused:

yes perfect fit

bit it would be VERY tight i would have thought?
-

i like them tight :laugh:
-
Do these change the offset in any way, or require spacers??
-
surely it would benefit from spacers?
-
amd site says nothing else needed to do the job
-
fair does, i wonder if they have fitted some with 18s on tho! ;)
-
Not for my use I'm afraid JPC, it'd ruin the arches. I can't have spacers/changed offset.

You could if you bought the correct offset BBS though. :wink:
-

A guy on ASN has some fitted to his S3 with 19's like mine and he needed some spacers and Im not sure the mounting brackets are stock items, I 'll see if I can find out :smiley:

LOL - like an ET66 to compensate for a 15mm spacer!... I like the thinking though.
-

i have sent amd an email to find out what is in there kit and what you need to fit them
-

Really not sure pal, gonna have to get me @rse in gear and make some proper money again next year, which might mean working away, again, so we'll have to see. If I'm around I'm more than up for it :driver:
-
cmon gaz! you know you can really! ;)
-
just done a bit of research and the spacer needed is only 3mm so that good :smiley:
-

That makes them viable really, i wouldn't wont any bigger spacers on the front. :smiley:

this was from AMD who also sell them :wink:
-
Now, a 3mm spacer is more than acceptable.. I presume 5mm is the smallest you can get?
So, the kit you can get will have everything required to fit? (bar the spacers) I'm super interested now!
-
holy smokes, go on, you know you wanna! ;)
-
serious bit of kit!! go for it tony. :drool:

Ok, I'm just waiting on a favour coming in for my 1st choice of some APs - so depending on that price, I'll let you know ASAP.

no probs
it would be good to see these fitted to a car and i bet they would stop a gti dead in its tracks :laugh:
-
Hi,
Santa has come up trumps with some 6-pot APs as requested, so I'm going to pass on the RS4s. I simply couldn't turn them down for the money, but for anyone else looking into this... I'd snap this offer right up now, before the Euro rates shat it all up.
Thanks,
Mike.

Those Pork six-pot calipers are identical to my RS4 ceramic calipers, except for the ceramic inserts! :P
