[Es2] Big Brakes

[Andy Suttner]

Thanks for the input i was looking at the ECS website and i think ill give
them a call this afternoon. There somewhat local to me which is nice too.
The wiring is going well so far on the car. The engine side of the harness
is close to completion next is the interior part of the harness and the
start up :) Looking forward to driving the coupe again after driving the
Avants for two years.

My coupe has the S2 5-bolt hubs.  I used the RS2 brackets to mount my 2000
Porsche Carrera calipers, over euro 314x30 A8 rotors.  Barely fits in my 16"
urS4 5-spoke wheels; really more brakes than you need.  You should also
change the brake proportioning valve to fix the bias if you add
bigger/different brakes.

I'm in Massachusetts; you're welcome to see the car/test fit wheels.
