    Easy Brembo rear brake upgrade?

    Has anyone put together a simple mod to install 4-piston Brembo calipers on the rear RS4 brakes? I don't want to upgrade to the massive 380mm Brembo rear setup, since I plan on leaving the front stock.

    Both of those ideas lose the parking brake.

    Not if you add a Wilwood spot brake or Brembo parking brake setup.

    I have my friend working on this. Though I will be upgrading to a Brembo 4 piston caliper with the 380mm rotors. I had a similar setup on my A4 using the same e break calipers that I sourced from the Brembo B5 S4 kit.

    Why would you upgrade your rear brakes before upgrading the front? Is this a dedicated track car?

    Are those the rotors I see people run with spacers behind them? Or did you have a hat machined, doesn't look OEM to me but I could be wrong.

    These are oem audi s6/s7 ceramics and yes, i will run spacers behind the disc to make them clear the control arm. Maybe i will make new hats later.. But I machined some on the caliper bracket to make the spacers smaller and not move my wheels too far out aswell.
