    B5 RS4 brakes on an ABY Coupe?

    As titled can all four brakes from a B5 RS4 wagon be used on an ABY Coupe (96 reg)?

    If so, what additional parts are required?
    And will they fit under the standard 16 inch Avus rims?

    Thanks

        Well done there mate.

        Im not overly sure but I think it may be possible with carrier adaptors and obviously the rights disks but I think the pads need to be shaved a bit and im not entirely sure they will fit on underneath the original Avus wheels.... Im sure someone will be along soon to put this right or with better guidance.

            the rear Brakes fit, except the caliper.

            For perfekt fitment like original RS4 you´ll have to use:

            rs4 calipercarrier
            rs4 discs/Rotors
            Girling 41/43 caliper from urS4 or UrS6, or some Audi A8 Quattro

            And you need most importantly the RS4 wheel hubs, These are 7mm wider than the original S2 Coupé ones. then everything works perfectly.

            You may have a look at my other Posts, there are some Pictures of it.

            The Front brake from the RS4 B5 makes no sense because those Brakes aren´t as they should be. You´d better go for big reds, means the brake from the RS2. This also fits and works perfectly with non modified OE parts...

            Kind regards,
