[s-cars] Brake Options?

[Lewis, Gary M]

Per the 'Linus Toy Brake Spec' (Ok, it probably isn't his, but he was the
only one that sent me the tip), I am in the process of the 993tt
Calipers/RS2 Brackets/A8 Lang Rotors.  I have the Calipers in hand, and man,
THEY ARE HUGE!!!  Like Fat Bastard HUGE.  I don't believe they are gonna
fit, but folks have done it, and swear they will.  I am going this route as
I spent all my upgrade cash this year on the motor (RS2 Spec mit der VMAP),
springs, shocks, brakes (obviously), and repairs (I just bought it).  I
don't have the cash (ok, I do, but The Wife (tm) is losing patience), and
this option fits under the stock 16" Avus rims.  Next year however, the
wagon gets the 18" original S8 Avus (UR-S8 Rims??).  Like so:

With judicious shopping, and maybe a little luck, you should be able to do
the
993tt/RS2 bracket/A8L rotor conversion for $1100.  Don't forget for any of
these conversions, you have to change brake lines.
