Retrofit Carbon Ceramics

[LayZ_Pz]

I just picked my 8.5Y RS3, not a custom config but it had everything but CC.

I had a 8Y with Carbon Ceramics and the new one has steels... How does the CC retrofit goes? Do I need to change calipers? Brake booster? Are both assembly from Akebono?

If anyone has already retrofited CC I would appreciate some inputs

I found a great after market solution, I fitted 380mm on the OEM calliper (2.5mm spacer and calliper bolt also replaced).

Could you please provide a full list of the hardware you used? I just can't stand brake dust anymore

Check your DM.


Yes the rears are an issue now for me, I'm working on a kit using OEM parts to fit a bigger custom size ceramic disc for the rears.
