Got BBK?
« on: December 05, 2009, 04:13:04 PM »
This probably should have been one of the first things that I did on this car, but it ended up being the last.  The glaring deficiency with my S4 was the stopping power.   That's not a problem now.

2-piece Lightweight Slotted Front Rotors (350mm x 32mm), 2 - Silver OEM Porsche Cayenne(6-piston Brembo) Calipers (lines and bleeder screws swapped from end to end for proper performance on an Audi), 2 - Stainless DOT approved Brake Lines, 1 - Set Hawk HPS Pads, 2 - OEM Cayenne Brake Pad sensors (they work by only splicing 2 wires), 1 - Liter Pentosin DOT 4 Synthetic Brake Fluid and all bolts and hardware to mount the calipers with 16mm to 14mm stainless bushings to snuggly fit the calipers.

I think my BBK has 314mm rotors, but it is about time to change them and HOLY CRAP are they expensive!   I think they are $250 per side!

I still haven't taken my R to the track down here and I'm thinking of getting better suspension first. But that brake is sooo tempting.

Another option for the A4 B6 guys is getting a S4 B6 setup which brings you from 312 mm up to 345mm.  I didn't want flashy Porsche calipers on my 4 door sedan.  That was one of the main reasons I went this route.  Nice kit though for the OP.  :t-up:
