    They might do! Or else just buy the later hoses from an S6 or late S4. Maybe you could check part numbers between the two.
    '93 S4 Avant now back on the road complete with new shiny go faster bits.

      I'm about to do the conversion myself, hopefully this weekend. From looking at the parts system the rubber flexi hose is the same, as is the metal bracket on the caliper it connects to but i will confirm for sure when i have mine done.

          Conversion done, really is plug and play. The flexible brake line, metal bracket bolted to the caliper, and the metal hard line are identical so i took them off the old UFO caliper and everything bolted up perfectly

          Only subtle difference i noticed is the small brackets on the strut to hold the pad wear and abs sensor looms, on the S4 they are held on with 8mm bolts, on the S6 they use 10mm bolts. I was missing a few so i had to drill the holes out to fit them onto the S6 strut. But apart from that everything else is identical.
