That's quite possible.  ETKA is geared toward having the VIN tio get the 
proper parts rather than knowing the individual models.

  Mark, correct me if I'm wrong... but the 321mm front brakes (Lucas) are 
the
  S4, 4 pad per caliper brakes.
  
  The 288mm are the ATE brakes with a conventional 2 pads per caliper and 
were
  for all A4 models except the S4.
  
  And of course, rears are different amongst the Q and non-Q cars.  I forget
  if the S4 rears are the same as an A4Q... I *think* so.  Personally, on my
  B5 S4 (lowered, Stoptech fronts), I did an A8 rear brake conversion (same
  caliper used, different bracket and larger rotor) to change my brake bias.
