Default I think they're different...

URs4 has the G60s, not sure what the S6 has.

Default The 2.8 V6 (AAH) has completely different brakes than the S4/S6 (AAN)...

The fronts on the AAH cars are single piston calipers instead of the (US) S4/S6's G60 dual piston, and the rears also have different calipers and solid instead of vented rotors.

Unfortunately, it appears that the struts/hub carriers are also different, so you would have to swap in at least the S4/S6 strut assemblies before you could do the upgrade, and you could also run into other incompatibilities (hub to CV, etc.)

UrS6 are the same G60's - A6's use single pot calipers.

You have the HP2 caliper that the 1994-> UrS4/S6 had in other markets than N America..
