    Audi RS4 (B5) Brakes on Audi S2 Coupe?

    Hi !

    Is this posible ?
    If so, can you buy bracets from a dealer?
    Or must you make them yourself ?


    Thnx

    I'm sure its possible, but IIRC the B5 RS4 calipers are huge twin pots and very heavy - not the best upgrade for the money / effort. Custom brackets definately required, the hub bolt spacing is much wider on the RS4

        Yeah - they are the big heavy HP2 calipers - I bought some ages ago with a view to fitting them - I mean like 7 yrs ago - way before these 996 and other conversions became de rigeur.

        The HP2 caliper is REALLY heavy and unweildy. The 996 monos are far superior - 4 pots for starters and lots lighter.
