I am looking to improve the brakes on my 2.8 quattro. I have read some threads on it and wanted to ask the forums (yours) opinion on some of the options. I have a bit of money to spend, but am not going down the route of big brake conversions because its only a 2.8 and not a heavily modded s4....
Yesterday I bled the rears but couldn't do the fronts due to completely seized bleeding nipples on the calipers. Nightmare!!! I am going to have to replace these, so reference calipers am I better off getting replacements or upgrading to some b6 items(what ones) or some b5 s4 items? If I upgrade to either s4 b5 or b6 items what will I need to make them bolt on?
Moving onto discs, what is my best bet? B5 performance items or oe b6?
Ref pads what do you guys recommend?
The car already has goodridge braided lines.
Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated......
P.S ..... Fixed my suspension. Replaced the top arm bushes, problem solved!
