[s-cars] 314mmx30 brake calipers S6+ euro setup?

[Richard Tanimura]

Thompson,

Audi upgrade?? Keep what you have!! Or buy the floating calipers and sell me
your Brembo's ;-)

Seriously, if you really want to upgrade, the 993TT calipers will handle
323mm rotors. Even more thermal capacity, even more Force x radius. Are you
getting fade? boiling fluid? Tried changing pads? A lot of braking capacity
is tire limited rather than caliper/brake limited. Get better tires.

I don't think the floating calipers I have seen come anywhere close to the
Brembo, AP, Alcon, Tar-ox designs. I don't think they are rigid enough.

Just my $0.02

Rich

I was surfing up elcats FA tonight and came across these big brakes >>

4A0 615 107        Floating caliper L
4A0 615 108        Floating caliper R
441 615 301 AA  Brake disc 314x30
4A0 698 151 B    Pads - Girling

Is this the S6+ setup? It says for AAN, AEC (V8) engine. The
illustration of the caliper with the Audi rings on it made me get all
giddy. Are these available? I have the 993tt red calipers (and maybe
these discs ECS stage II) on my S4. BTDT, Ideas you guys for this OE
Audi upgrade or stick with local hop ups?

Thompson
