-----  Thanks Stott,  I have the right size wheels, 17",  the rotor thickness of the rotor from which the caliper came is 32mm.   I was thinking that there are some Audi rotors that size.. I don't know how much the rotor thickness can vary and still work... I am sure I will have to have some brackets made.  The price is pretty good, I think, at  $400.00 for the pair with pads.... It is an online sale , so I am trying to be as sure as I can before I buy or they get sold to someone else....  Stephen Redford  '85Urq needing a "Good" 5000tq head (MC??) and wanting Brembos.

  Size/placement of the caliper and fitting them over some rotors and
  under your rims is once thing.

  Having brackets that properly adapt from the stock mounting points on
  your struts to the mounting points on your calipers, and having a
  bracket that places the caliper in a correct/workable position is going
  to be your biggest hurdle.

  Having rotors with the workable diameter, thickness, hat size, lug bolt
  spacing and hubcentric size will be your other issue.

  No specific info on the urq, aside from the normal upgrade to G60's
  option. Good luck.

  ----------- I just got a chance to get some , almost new,  Big,
  Red-colored ,Brembo Calipers with pads .    They are off a 2003+ EVO 8 
  The person is upgrading.    Does anyone know if they would fit on my
  '85Urq...  Someone told me that the  993 monoblocks would / could be
  fitted to my car.   The rotor width, he says, is 32mm.     Thanks in
  advance...   ...Stephen Redford  ; still working on the "head "
  problem...
