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

Hi already!

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

Anymore specific details pics of the adaptor and where connected on the hub?

I would like to adapt this to the rs2 but the hub is different.

any part numbers of the caliper?

Hi Jamo,

Finally I have written this up here. http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=62766.

Hope it is still of interest.

Cheers

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

Wonder what the difference is to the coupé regarding hand brake cable. What did the calipers cost?

edit... Oh btw... If S4-b7 fits RS-b7 fits to. =) Know that a guy here in sweden had RS4a calipers on his S4. Same guy I bought my RS4-b7/RS6 front calipers from.

[audinut]

oh poo that sucks

B7 rs4 does that run the correct conversion parts?

B7 RS4 seems to run 324mm discs on rear with different calipers and carriers to this conversion.

YES!
I talk about with Audi and they can sell me these clips but for around 35€+21% (tax)

EBC says that they haven't any idea about these clip s

[Skull]

the pads need some metal clips. it is possible the pads are moving if you didnt use them.

you can see the clips here:
