Audi motorsports brakes thread

westwest888 · 05-07-2012, 07:51 AM

I was at an Audi Club event this weekend at Thunderhill. I'm pretty obsessed with brakes and tires since (in my mind) they are the main thing keeping this from being a better car. Not more speed or Alu Kreuz or whatever gets the most attention on this board.

Here's what folks are doing:

1. S4 with alcons (380mm likely)
2. R8 with Pirelli Pzero Corsa tires
3. TT with alcons
4. 911 with custom Fiske wheels
5. TT with small brembos

1. S5 with stock calipers, slotted discs
2. TT (?) with alcons
3. B6 S4 (?)
4. B6 S4 with brakes lifted off Porsche Cayenne SUV

1. S4 titanium with 2Bennett Motorsports brakes
2. same S4, rears
3. M3 sedan with top of the line 380mm brembos, $900 per axle pads

3. Lotus with AP Racing (I own a set of AP racing brakes)

Give me a brake.

Alu Kreuz is a good mod for it's price. Turn in was improved a lot.

Don't discount what lighter weight wheels will net as well. (your post just said tires and brakes but not wheels

)

Looks like the Brembo Rotors (On the TT bottom right) are on the wrong side? Look at the direction of the drilled rotor...it's backwards? no?

It's correct. It just looks weird because the caliper is in the front of wheel well instead of the back. That's just how they have it hung on a TT.

Did you get any feedback from the other S4 with the 2Bennett kit?
