S3 Hubs bolt on to A3?

[Jack-A3]

Hi guys,

Im new here as i recently purchased an A3 in white.I'll post pictures in a couple of days.

I have a question whether anybody knows if the S3 hubs and discs will bolt straight onto the standard A3 set-up?

Thanks

Is your A3 a Quattro?

 

[Jack-A3]

Nope the car is a 1.6. How much work do you think would need to be done?

Depends what you are looking to do exactly? You looking at putting S3 hubs etc to use the larger brakes i assume? I believe you can just use the carriers, discs and calipers and they will bolt to your original hub once the old stuff has been removed

Yeh i was looking to fit the bigger brakes and presumed i would need to change the hubs and possibly suspension. I guess all of that can be ebayed!?

Thanks for the help!
