8-piston calipers possible on 330mm disc in 17' wheels

[quattro-nick]

my brakes in the front are now 6 piston callipers from xyz with 330mm vent disc and ds2500 pads in 17 inch wheels
woud it be possible to place 8 piston calipers on 330mm disc in 17' wheels?
someone has done this before?
i want to place this for more brakepower on track use
i coud buy 8-piston calipers from r8-audi rs4-audi rs6 and make custom brackets and still use my current 330mm disc

I believe its possible I think that k sport makes an 8 piston caliper and you can fit on a 330 millimeter rotor.
If you can make the brackets then why not go for it.

Nick,i think the 8pistons can fit the 330mm disc since the calipers has the radial mounted style.
only issue you need to find the 330mm rotor with larger sliding face.

[Nick320]

Couldn't that be custom ordered from some place?

[quattro-nick]

thanks for reply guys
i already have 330mm disc so i gonna made some custom brackets for the 8 piston calipers
i"ve seen some k-sport calipers for sale on the net but just looking around for a good price at the moment
otherwise i can buy 8-piston calipers from a audi rs4 b7-rs6-r8 or vw phaeton,they are all the same but seems to look larger than k-sport ones

I hope it all works out for you. ☺

Subscribed.. Will be keeping an eye on this for my next project.

The b7 rs4 calipers require larger rotors.
I know on the b5 I had to use 370mm
rotors and 19" wheels.

I don't think this will work. RS4/6 8 pots use a large disc annulus (pad depth) ~ 68mm from memory. I think you will struggle to find a suitable 330mm disc. My gut feeling is its probably not worth the effort unless you have very small Pistons in your 6 pots.

What about rs3 two piece discs which are 370mm and rs4/6 8 pot calipers would this combination work?

[LucheS2@20v]

If its not a problem to post, i have a set of d2 racing 8 pot 330mm brakes bolt on for b3/b4 with brake lines.

Also can offer only brackets for sale

[quattro-nick]

i already bought some k-sport 8 piston calipers and they fit on my hubs
i'm waiting now for my new yellow ebc brake pads
question,does somebody know where i can buy some anti rattle clips for my calipers?

[LucheS2@20v]

If u can... Dont get yellow ebc car that i have is with yellow ebc and its very bad. Go for red color

[quattro-nick]

why bad? the information says they are very good for daily driving and track and they brake also good with cold brakes.
