Seen an advert that S4 front brakes will be available end of month. Can I use these on the A4 ( quattro T Sport), heavy car 1440kilos, only comes with 288mms fronts,whilst you S4 guys may need bigger and better her indoors would be happy with S4 fronts ( koz I tell her so ! ) What would be a suitable price, may need new discs I suppose so may effectively be buying calipers / mountings. It definately needs some help - nowhere near as good as my S3. Thanks.

B5 A4 ?
I own a B5 2001 A4 1.8QT 180 Sport, MTM Stage One. It use to be mine, but I gave it to the wife when i bought the RS4, she loved it too much!. I dont think the S4 front brakes are an easy install on the A4. You're better off looking at the Movits or nothing. You can install A8 Disks with TT carriers and std callipers on the A4 too, but it only helps a little. One word, "Movits".

PS The Std A4 brakes are very good street stoppers, only that they'll fade on the track.
