Paging the Audi Gods, if I get OEM drilled A8 front rotors for my A6, do I necessarily have to buy
the TT caliper brackets? or I can get away using the A6 stock brake parts? I found a pair of OEM A8 on ebay.

Well, I was just looking for OEM rotors on ebay, and I saw those. Thats all. =)
Would I really have to get the TT caliper brackets if I get the A8 rotors?

I've not done the upgrade, but...
I presume that you need the TT caliper brackets to locate the caliper further from the hub center to accomodate the larger dia. A8 rotors.
A8 rotors = 312mm
A6 rotors = 288mm
Have you read the tech article on the subject?
