Found this info and I want to be sure before buying parts that won't have any use to me.
Are the s4 and b7 a4 rear calipers really the same?
I've been looking into this and they do not look the same.
Can anyone confirm or deny this..

Unfortunately, I cant really say for certain but im like 95% sure the S4 front and rear calipers are different to any spec b6 or b7.

I would've think so too.
Due to the larger size discs I would expect them to be stronger than just the a4's.

Cheers..
I've spoken for a complete genuine wet for a great price..
That way I know for sure it'll all bolt on with the right parts..
