Looking forward to the full size pro photo shots.

have you got coilovers? If so you might have to dial it out with the bump/ rebound settings.

Yes mate got kwv3's it's quite scary actually it's quite an aggressive fish tail, it was suggested to me to change my pads? Two of my mates run massive power evo's and they suggest the bias may be out with massive ceramics on the front and stock rear how ever I can't see that being an issue seeing as the brakes are b7 rs4 ceramics

Post by **HYFR** » Sat Jul 28, 2012 11:20 am

cant be as there are no ceramics for the rear on the B7

Post by **S4Player** » Sat Jul 28, 2012 11:25 am

What can't be Dk? I said the ceramics were designed for the b7 so surely Audi would have known if the rears being to small would cause the problem? They were suggesting upgrading the rear brakes to help its common practice for them to upgrade all round with big power. I can't find a rear upgrade that's bigger, sonny I've just had the car all aligned and set up can you elaborate a little more please

Post by **HYFR** » Sat Jul 28, 2012 11:29 am

i meant a stock RS 4 fresh from the factory with your ceramics will run the same rear brake set up as you ... so that shouldnt be an issue

ahhh ... just read you said it 'cant be' aswell

so we agree ! LOL

Post by **S4Player** » Sat Jul 28, 2012 11:36 am

Yes mate lol we agree! Hoping sonny can help me out here

A symptom of fish tailing under hard breaking is due to the bound/rebound setting on the suspension. I cant remember which will dial it out. I will have to look at my source book. Im at work now will check up later.

My car when i lightened it fishtailed slightly, i put it down to needing more rear down force( which was probably the case). Since i changed my suspension setting ( made softer) it fish tails more.

I cant see it being the brakes
Unless there totally shot.
