Avant Rear Brake Upgrade - Rear Brake Porn by request

I tried, there is no way to get the spring in any other position.
Custom spring maybe. So I've removed the spring, and only use the e-brake if I have to.
If someone finds a off the shelf spring that will work please let me know.

Thanks

See if you can turn the spring the other way around, so it's pointing at the center of the caliper, not at the wheel

Just a quick note for the 300mm B7 S4, and wants to run the original 16" Avus wheels, there is a problem with e-brake return spring touching the wheel.
I will try a 3mm spacer to see if it allows clearance with the wheel.

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.

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.

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

[audinut]

noo use new carrier and old 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]

use original carrier bolts
