    2000 RS4 Suspension onto 1996 A6 Quattro???

    I know its not a S2 or RS2 but i am looking for info.

    I am wondering if i can fit RS4 suspension from a 2000 model onto my 1996 A6 2.5 TDI Quattro. The reason i am asking is i have RS4 Brake calipers and they dont match up with the A6 caliper bracket holes on the strut.

    Will i need different driveshafts or is there any other way around getting the calipers to fit.

    Thanks in advance

    Not a single bit will bolt up to your A6. The suspensions are totally different. You would be better off selling the RS4 suspension and putting the funds toward a proper big brake kit for your A6.

        Is there a way of getting the RS4 calipers to fit without changing the suspension?
