Corrado brakes are 11" in front and the 4kcsq has 10.1".
The calipers would have to be changed and the 11" compatable calipers 
from the Corrado won't fit the 4kq without a special bracket or 
repositioned mounting points.

The GTI discks are a hub/disck one unit.  They will not fit the rear 
of your 4kq.  The way the hub fits the car is totally different 
(including the wheel bearings).  
Next time you have a chance have a look at how the GTI 
brakes are designed.  The only Audis they will fit are the 1980-87 
(excluding 1987 1/2 Coupes) 4000s/Coupe only becouse they share the 
same rear spindle mounting pattern.
