Default S8 brakes onto A8??

Hi guys,

Just a quick one. There's a very slight possibility that a brake setup will become available fairly shortly from a 2002 S8. I have a 2000 A8 4.2QS, and was wondering if anyone has done the swap, and if they have is it worth it???

Cheers chaps

Tony

Default Possible, but ...

You'll need to replace the front uprights, and you'll also need to upgrade the rear to avoid shifting brake bias badly to the front.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/88966.phtml">An expensive project</a></li></ul>
