996 caliper on RS2

[maRS2]

Will it be a straight swap to fit 996 or boxter S caliper on RS2 with disc from the Big red (322 X 30 mm)

[maRS2]

Sorry disc 322 X 22 mm

[s2avant95M]

You mean 322 x 32.

[maRS2]

Yes 322 X 32

[maRS2]

may be Bry can answer to this?

So again will the 996 caliper fit on the RS2 with Audi RS2 big red disc 322 X 32 or schould i need custom bracket?

Not quite a straight swap. 996 callipers were designed for a 28mm disk IIRC. The pad retaining pins have to be moved/filed. Pads have to be ground too, as they're too thick for the wider disks.

I'm doing this convertion too! so what disc would you guys recomend?
I do have the original s2 hub's on for now, but i'm changing the hub's to rs2 this spring.
I got 996 monoblocks for front and original rs2 rear brakes/calippers.
all i want is better brakes, with as much original hardware as possible (custom carriers are ok)and rs2 discs (322x32or something better?!).

sorry for stealing your thread maRS2

hmm, thought of that, but then it all comes down to the handbrake solution. the rs2 rear calippers does'nt have a handbrake option in them, cause it's inside the disc. but on the s2 it's on the calipper - how to figure out that one without getting an addidtional calipper for handbrake (not approved in norway..)?

[AndersS2]

you did?!

wow!

what setup do you use then?

[ridgeracer]

anders you got pm

[rotoryboy]

Well dont keep it a secret

[ridgeracer]

Well dont keep it a secret

just thought people got bored reading about the cayenne brakes ..
i got it approved as the requirements are that the handbrake will function if the footbrakes fail and that it can hold the car in a hill of 16 degrees. it doesnt have to be cable ( can be hydraulic ) but it must be separat.
