You can make anything fit with enough money. No off the shelf stuff for those calipers though.

Default Brake upgrades are good. But Cayenne S brakes are waaaay more than you need. And $$$$ even if

brackets to mount them to an UrS existed. Plus you probably need to run 18" or 19" wheels to get the clearance.

Concentrate on a "big black" (or red) upgrade. STFA and check the FAQ digest for the PNs.

Default Yeah i kind of thought they would be a little over the top, I saw someone selling

a set of the calipers on aw classifieds for $850... but by the time you take into consider all the custom work i'd imagine they would be uber $$$

Default Wanna guess WHY they are selling them?

Likely because the calipers are just a small part of the work and $$$ required for an install. And that doesn't take the wheels and tires into account.

Default Au contraire mes aime!!!

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/15038/img00035.jpg"></center><p>The Green Monstah will be running 6 piston Cayenne calipers in "Big Yellow" with 355x32 mm rotors and custom hats. The bracket which you see posted is compliments of Brendan Rudak of apikol fame. I had a set of custom aluminum brackets and as Brendan, Dave Jones and I discussed the nature of this car the decision was made to go with steel. I just dropped these brackets off at the metal finishing shop to be clear zinc coated. My rear brakes will remain the Porsche 993tt calipers powder coated to match the Big Yellow fronts with 314x30 rotors and custom hats.

Hap, wit dakine brakin action not from Evahboost, Maguire
