Stasis are a big Audi/Tuner in the States, and produce lots of parts for modding Audi's, but I thought mainly on suspension front.
All good gear though.
Having said that, I can't believe their 370mm 'big brake kit' with 6 pistons, is any better than the OEM B7 setup, at 365mm and 8 pistons??

lol you guys don't get out often, eh?
Stasis is the biggest Audi performance supplier for suspension and braking components.
Stasis brake calipers are 10lbs lighter than the OEM brembo on the RS.
you're eliminating about 20lbs of weight from each front corner of the car, that is substantial.

There's a whole big wide world out here that isn't the USA!
You can't assume on an international forum like this that just because a tuner/supplier/WHY is big in one country that everyone round the world will know about them.
I know about Stasis - but that's because I frequent a lot of US Audi boards too.

It was more of a knock to a first time poster asking for a group buy (scam ), he/she could of gave a link to the product to show what it is, this way it will appeal to more people , esp those "Humbugs" who have not heard of Stassis Engineering
.
However did a Google search and not a bad company.

Would like to see a side by side test showing the improvement in braking performance, to guage whether they were better or not.scub wrote: Stasis brake rotors are 10lbs each lighter than stock

The discs may well be 10lbs lighter but part of that is because they are 5mm smaller and the rest I imagine like the JHM rotors are because they have wider vanes and therefore less thickness, so as much as they are lighter and reduce unsprung weight they may not last as long.
I also know of Stasis and they are a decent firm, my only reservation with them is they have never really bothered with the UK market and I would wonder why? Never had an answer from them about that either, it's not that difficult to get a distributor. Willwood are looking at it, so why not Stasis? After all there are 3500 RS4's on our tiny island, I suspect a lot of them have owners who would modify to improve the performance of their cars?

In my experiance with brakes they are all similar in stopping power, ie stop you quickly,however the real point in uprated brakes is the fading time with prolonged use.
I have spent fortunes on brakes in the past on various subarus etc only to feel that the standard items were just as good at stopping the car its only real benefit with upgrading would be for fading with track use etc.

And don't forget all the other Audi's that like to mod?!P_G wrote:After all there are 3500 RS4's on our tiny island, I suspect a lot of them have owners who would modify to improve the performance of their cars?
Awesome GTI do alot of APR tuning stuff (and other places I should add), so why don't Stasis...?
Remember the Awesome GTI/APR Stage 3 1.8T A4 B6 Avant? Was quicker than a standard B7 RS4...??

didn't mean to invade this forum
I have been around but mostly as an observor. I have seen some RS4 owners at this forum using the Alcon 370mm. I assumed most would know what they are.

Stasis is not the manufacture. Alcon is. Most would know that, like Brembo, Alcon is just as reputable in the braking arena.
I find OEM rotors insufficient for track purposes. They crack after a couple of lapping days. My upgrade options would be the Brembo 380mm rotor ($2200US) or the Alcon 6-pot ($3200). I opt for the Alcon because of better value. It includes pads, SS line, fluid, calipers and rotors. Brembo 380mm is just the rotors. I can fit 18" over Alcon but probably not for the 380mm. The alcon also has good resell value when I am done with my car.
I won't touch JHM rotors because they are not track proven.

RE: didn
well that's a better sales pitch lol, I apologies for my first msg.
They do look the business. and going by what you say, are upto the job. so have you had the Alcon discs on your RS4 before?

Neither are Milltek exhausts but people buy them for a quality reputation and they work on a track as I suspect would JHM.citanest wrote:I won't touch JHM rotors because they are not track proven.
Re: didn't mean to invade this forum
You suspect???? Just think about the consequence of an exhaust failing (if that's even possible) vs rotors failing at the track... You do the math!!!!P_G wrote:Neither are Milltek exhausts but people buy them for a quality reputation and they work on a track as I suspect would JHM.citanest wrote:I won't touch JHM rotors because they are not track proven.
