    RS2 to S2 Coupe 3B 1991 Front Caliper conversion?

    Hey again

    So after, finally, installing a complete leather interior (and lubing it up)...









    ...I've purchased some front calipers from a -96 RS2:



    What exactly do I need to bolt them on my S2 Coupe 3B 1991?

    Is this it? (with the exception of appropriate shims and bleeding the system...):
    front brake lines

    rs2 adapters


    Anything else?

      Oops.. I was in a bit of a hurry there.. I've found (and am choosing from) 3 different options on brake discs:
      1. Std A8 314mm Brembo discs
      2. Drilled/Grooved A8 314mm EBC discs
      3. A8 314mm Tarox discs

      So that part is pretty much covered..


      What I was wondering was if I'm on the right track with the adaptors/brake lines..

      AND if there's anything I'm missing (except for the discs that I forgot to mention )

          Well well.. the hunt for adapters has ended.. my good friend Tony, or more correctly his father, had a pair of seat cubra adapters and they are now resting safe on my shelf <:



          As for brake lines.. feels kinda wierd just ordering them alone.. if someone know what connections there should be into the porsche/brembo caliper and to the audi brake line system I could just have 'em made here in town, braided ofc, does anyone have any input on that?


          And just for fun Tony and I took a drive deep into the swedish country-side and came back with 4x rs4 18" rims <; Tony spotted an ad @ blocket.se for rs4 rims and we had a quick look on a roadmap... called the dude up and he said "hmm.. should be like 35-45min until you reach the town.. then you can call for further instructions.."

          We were outside his house in 25mins.. but then again we never told him that we drove an S2 <; gonna wrestle up a pic of the rims (not original but a original cap fits just fine)..

            Things are moving along nicely.. a full set of original audi carbon trims has been ordered <;

            But the question concerning the connections for the porsche caliper and the connection on the other side of the brake line towards the brake system are still unknown.. does anyone know what kinda connection they are?

            I think they should be the same as the ones on the item above..? If I got the info I could have braided brake lines/hoses made here in town.. and be on my way early next week..
