Rear brake upgrade

[Dobby84]

Anyone got a rear brake upgrade they may be selling?

[Greg_S]

Have you looked at the kit rusty did for the brake carrier to fit larger discs?

[Dobby84]

I'll check that out

Is it a coupe or avant. I've just upgraded my coupe to 302 mm a6 rear discs using original calipers and epitec brackets..

[Dobby84]

Yeah it's a coupe. Who did you get the brackets from?

Cheers Mate, dont suppose you have a PN for the discs? Did you need different brake lines or cables?

[tango123]

trw part no DF4776. let me know if you need some discs.I can supply them through work. Im not sure on fitment as i haven't done the conversion but i think it all works with factory calipers etc

Audi A6 C5 302 rear discs. It says on epitec website part numbers. I used pagid ones. Brackets come with all hardware. Cables and hoses fit as if intended. a really simple easy mod.
only bit of fabrication is taking a bit of metal off caliper carrier with an angle grinder .. easy

Love a bolt on solution that needs 'a bit of fabrication' lol
Added it to my list to but on pay day

By adding bigger disc you achieve next to nothing, Calipers are the weak point.
The most common upgrade is fit calipers from s6 c4 (Girling 41/43) using s2 carriers, you can use disc from s6 c5 269mm

looks much better than the tiny stock disc

I need to clean and paint my calipers. May do my brake flexi lines too while I'm at.
