Ceramic brake upgrade

[Stamsaas]

Hello Tought I could share some info on a bolt-on front ceramic brake upgrade on our black holes of money. It might be of interrest for someone I guess many allready have done something similar, but I did not fint very much on when I searched after it

I upgraded my fronts to ceramic, and it was almost too easy.
You need;
- Audi "ceramic" 19z calipers
- Ceramic brakepads
- R8 gen 2 ceramic 380x38mm discs (this is what I used, but I think they are the same on the Rs5, some Lamborghinis etc)

After removing the oem caliper end disc, its just to install the ceramic disc, and drill and tap a 6mm to secure the disc.

The adapter bracket from the ceramic caliper is identical to the oem Rs6 one, so this one you dont need. The ceramic caliper fits bolt on the Rs6, and the disc offset is then spot on

Bleed brakes, and have fun

Holy scheiße!

The penultimate upgrade, all factory parts too.

What's your impression so far?

firstly, your car looks great!
replacing the brakes for something bigger is on my list... i'll wait until mine need replacing.

i did a bit of research into options for bigger rear brakes. i was looking into options for R8 rears.
i found these:

still-static can make a comparable kit for our cars
vandit kit is EUR550

another option i was recommended is Epytec. i couldn't find a specific kit for our cars.

Stamsaas, what are your plans for the rears?

Also, unrelated... what splitter do you have on the front? it looks to fit well.

and what rims are you running? make and spec?

All factory part, no spacers, no mods Here in Norway, we have some very strict rules on modifing cars, but this bolt-on all-oem upgrade went straight trough MOT

I have only done some small city driving, and som highway cruising so far, so not really put it to the test yet, but so far I am really happy with it! The best is no more brake dust!

I know there are some guys running rear ceramics on the c5, but the problem is the handbrake, so you will need a dual caliper setup, as them you show there. I do belive atleast two run Vandit brackets.
And as I mentioned, here we get trouble with obvious mods and aftermarked parts, so I will not do the rears. It would been awesome, but it will only get me in trouble. As if the straightpipes isnt enough The Rs3, Rs4 and Rs5 also only have ceramic front brakes, so its good enough for me

Front lip is the one and only Ez-lip It fits everything, and it is forgiving it you touch the ground
