Info/prices on RS4 front disc brakes

[am8631]

There are not exactly a lot of manufacturers making discs for the RS4 so i thought i would let you guys know what DBA can offer:

Hi Andy



No problem, the 4000 disc is currently the only option but is available in 3 different guises, they are either available in a plain disc, the 6x6 wiper slot disc (which I quoted) and the XS drilled and slotted disc. Prices work out as follows:



DBA 42804 - £151.35 + VAT per disc



DBA 42804S - £162.65 + VAT per disc



DBA42804XS - £176.61 + VAT per disc



The reason I recommended the slotted disc is the RS4 is quite a hard car on its brakes and the 6x6 Wiper slot disc is what DBA recommend as its top performance disc if there is no 5000 two piece disc available. The XS drilled disc is really more a style option as it looks very impressive through large open faced wheels, its not recommended for any sort of track day or hard road use though. Please take a look at the question and answer section on DBA’s site http://www.dba.com.au/qna/index.asp for more information.

I am also waiting for 3G Brakes to get back to me as he said he might be able to get some slotted discs from his casting firm for less than £300 pair. I will keep you updated.

thanks for moving - i must admit i didnt like posting in 2 forums!

UPDATE - 3G Brakes have called me back and unfortunately the date for the discs has now be changed from early Feb to ???? so no good. He is going to price up some 2 peice discs for me though.
