I really liked your black 80 Competition and was gutted to see how it ended up. Pleased you've got another and are continuing your good work. I have an 80 FWD and have given it the competition look (unfortunately we didn't get the real thing over here in the UK).
I have a question for you:
Did you use Coupe quattro 20V discs for this? Did they and the S2 calipers fit straight on or did you have to alter them at all (spacers, etc..). My 80 is in need of a brake overhauland I have a set of G60's with carriers I want to fit to the front. Just wondering what discs are best to use?
Keep up the good work!Editor AOC www.audiclub.co.uk

I can see now.
Thanks for the reply re the headlight washers.
Nice, spacious, dry, fully equipped () place in which to "play".
@CQ 20V, make sure to read the article on page 45 of the Aug 08 issue of Audi Driver magazine, ( has a picture of the new Q5 on the front cover ), to avoid the problem the writer had where he refurbished brakes, but they didn't ultimately fit under his wheels. We've all had similar experiences, but just mentioned this, in case it has any relevance to your bake plans.
It's a short article and could be read while browsing.
Kind regards.Last edited by macspring; 17 September 2011, 11:53.

The brakes are a straight swap, the disc you need are 276x25 from a coupe quattro 20v or from and 2.8 B4.
good luck with you project!Audi Quattro WR

@ CQ20v I forgot,
but just in case, a reminder to consider the idea of changing the stud pattern from 4 x 108 to 5 x 112 at this stage rather than after shelling out for new discs etc. a second time, maybe appropriate or maybe not, but just thought I'd mention it.
Kind regards.Last edited by macspring; 17 September 2011, 11:54.

Cheers - Jas11N changed his so it's well documented but I hope to have an S2 again in the future so will keep the 4 x 108 pattern for the "80 Competition" lookEditor AOC www.audiclub.co.uk

On my car I have the stock brake setup, 276mm discs and twin piston calipers... the 15" speedlines fits with no problems... you have a lot of room in your competition 16's!- Looking for a S2
