Avant Rear Brake Upgrade - Rear Brake Porn by request

[John B]

Whatever you find here or somewhere else, please post it in detail here since I'm curious about the same. Cable length is the final piece of my puzzle and I would like something that fits bolt on but that is 10cm longer then Coupé original.

Cheers

Hope it is of interest.

Hi already!

Anyone have the possibility to send (and sell of course) the pad clip set?
Thanks a lot.

Is anybody running urs4 rear brakes on an S2 avant, if so what disks did you use?

Or does anybody know of any other bolt on options?

B7 S4 conversion sounds ideal but Audi wants €1200 for the bits

Cost me about 590euro for this setup all new TRW gear.

Found the calipers on ebay brand new for about £140 each, the rest I got from http://www.vwspares.co.uk



TRW:

300mm rear:
BHT257 / BHT258
Carrier BDA632 x 2


300mm rear painted black
BHT266 BHT267
Carrier: BDA948 x 2


Pads: TRW GDB1516 38 inc vat and includes spring clips
Discs: TRW DF6005 £36 each inc vat

Hi guys,I'm trying to upgrade my rear brake with s4 b7 ones,but the bolts carriers won't fit they are diferent lenght and threath,so what you guys done to yours.cheers.

[audinut]

use original carrier bolts

[aalveris]

In this case I have to use my old carriers wich they look a bit smaller and a lot more rusty

[audinut]

noo use new carrier and old carrier bolts

[aalveris]

I've tried...looks like the threath of the carriers is diferent then the one on my old bolts...simply they wont screw in

[mcandmar]

If it helps the bolts Pete supplied me are off a B7 S4. N91036902, M10x1,25x60

Haven t fitted them yet so cant confirm if the overall length is correct, i think somebody posted about them recently being slightly too long and needing cut down to length. Having said that i fitted the kit to a friends car a while back and dont remember having to do anything with them.

[aalveris]

In my case, the bolts of the new carriers are same lenth but the old ones are diferent lenght wich makes them one 10mm sorter and oneone longer wich officially is not problem.
